INSPIRATIONAL WORDS
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."

Exciting for Austin for the 7th grd. as he can now play football-scary for both Emma, and I as this is her 1st yr. of school, preschool that is.(very hard to be with someone for the past 4 yrs. of her life everyday, now all of a sudden were apart-I dont know who cryed harder, her or me?)-frustration, and my nerves beeing shot well I think you can teel just by me rambling on, and on ETC. Obvesley Im @ home ALONE, and I not only need to keep myself busy, but now I have time to actually leave a comment, not just quickly browse the blog! So enough about my Lizzy story on to the blog.
