#PSA October 2017

Dear Kids,

It is my goal with this blog, that as you grow older you will look back on it as a 'scrapbook' of sorts.  It's a glimpse into our lives.  Sometimes we get so busy 'living' that we don't notice the little things.

October is Down syndrome Awareness month.  Obviously, Down syndrome plays a part in our life.  It does not limit our lives but it does color it in ways that are different from others.  It does allow us to see/live life differently.  I contend we live it more deeply. 



As you grow, I hope you will see that more clearly.  I hope you will see the beauty.  I hope you will realize that we need to take care of everyone but most especially the 'least of these'. ( Kids, differently-abled, those who do not have a voice)  Don't fall for the lines that diminish those who are different, even when those delivering the lines are people in power.  (Parents, community leaders, elected officials)  Be a voice for those who have no voice.  Fight when they cannot. 

I love you all with all my heart (and a piece of my liver. 😉😉😉😉)

Mom
