October is Down syndrome awareness month

I thought I would share a few facts about Down syndrome.

Though children with Down syndrome have similar traits as one another they will look more like their family members then each other.

Individuals with Down syndrome are NOT always happy. They have the same range of emotions as others do.

Adults with Down syndrome can live fulfilling lifestyles. Have jobs, drive a car and get married.

They are more alike then different.

My Alli is going to do great things. She’s super smart and independent. She is more like her peers then different and we don’t give her special treatment at the house. She has to abide to the same rules as the rest of us.

God truly blessed my girl and us.
