World Down Syndrome Day



It's World Down Syndrome Day!!!!

March 21 (3/21) is World Down Syndrome Day because individuals with Down syndrome have 3 copies of the 21st chromosome. Pretty cool, eh?

Let me be honest with you here... in 10 days someone veeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyy special to me will be having a birthday, so I am saving a "big" post for that. But I didn't want to let this day slip by unnoticed.

So today I want to ask you... what do you think of when you hear the term "Down syndrome"? Or the term "disability"? Or "special needs"?

Because I have to tell you...



Four years ago...



THIS...



is not what I pictured.



I had no idea...



just how...



AWESOME...



it could be!



Happy 3/21!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
