In my last few posts I shared our story of finding out about Reid's diagnosis of Down syndrome...and though beginning this journey was indeed scary and it was indeed emotional and it was indeed not what I had anticipated for my son .............I would choose him over and over and over again extra chromosome and all! I would, I would absolutely choose this journey! I would choose to know this life that he has opened my eyes to. I would absolutely unequivocally choose him.
It is startling to me though that my choice is not statistically in the norm. Over 93% of these babies are aborted. 93%....wow, that is a staggering number. That is a number that tells me there are a lot of misconceptions about these amazing little people who grow into amazing adults who have much to offer to this world.
Absolutely, I would choose this precious gift of mine.....all. over. again.

Reid and Luke are very blessed little boys.
Oh, my, isn't he a doll! He's very close to Braska's age, it sounds like... they would have lots of fun. :o)
Thanks for visiting and saying hi! (Oh, and I love that you're using "31 for T21"... I think it fits so well! I've teased Tricia that that's what I call it too when she's not looking. :o)
