I will be the first to admit - I am terrified of having a child whom the world does not consider "normal."

But as today is Down Syndrome Day, I hope you'll take just 4 minutes of your time to watch this video-

It will probably make you cry, as it did for me!

Help spread this, to remind people that ALL life is precious!

I can't watch either, but thank you! I didn't realize there was such a day. All life is precious.

Apparently, it's today because DS is 3 copies of the 21st chromosome. soo.... 3/21 cute, huh?

My Uncle had Down Sydrome.  He was born in 1950 (before all the screening) and the doctor told my Grandmother not to be afraid.  God has a purpose for putting everyone on Earth, including him.  I just smile with I think of that.
