Just another reason why this man is the greatest baseball player today. We hope to meet this legend at a game in October. Click here and here for more.
Very cool! He does a tremendous amount of good work so to speak in the St. Louis area for Down syndrome awareness- definitely a reason to make me pick a side (mom was a Cardinals fan; dad was a Cubs fan; my motto growing up-go White Sox!). Have tried to entice him up our way but he is always slammed in October-wonder why....Are you going to the St. Louis Buddy Walk? I so want to go to one that I'm not in charge of and see what the day is really like. I'm holding out to go to the one in Jacksonville, FL- they hold their Buddy Walk on the beach, sounds like true bliss to me!
for new parents of a child with Down syndrome ..."There’s so much to consider! About learning how to manage prejudice, and about what to say and when to say it, and about how to juggle schedules and therapies and all that. There’s forgiveness, for all of us, and strength, and love, and hope, too. And faith, in yourself, and your child. Let your child show you the way. You will find it, together, and it will be amazing. It will be all the things you hoped it would be; it’s all there, waiting for you."

Are you coming to Walk in the Park??? Is that the "game in October"?
Oh I love this! Thanks for sharing. My husband is from the Pittsburgh area.
I love the first link with the video where you can see the son and how Pujols was talking to him.
