I do enjoy getting my hair done exactly for the same reasons (only place I read all the stars' gossip) but I have never been offered any drink other than tea or coffee.... May be I should suggest it to them? May be not, if I end up spending more... LOL.<br /><br />I totally get your "verbal throw up" reference. I do that throwing up myself: worse than a new mother is a new grandmother... even almost 3 years on! I think, at the begining, for me it was part of the process of acceptance, and integration of the reality of DS into our lives. Now, I am so proud of Cathal, of what he has gone through so bravely with his heart, of all the progress he is making, and so proud of both his parents, that I suppose talking about it is my way of celebrating them... And most of all of demystifying DS.Nan P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15048214158269327225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498941347207789497.post-34409577719175047902011-02-20T11:34:33.945-08:002011-02-20T11:34:33.945-08:00I love to tell people about DS just to let them se...I love to tell people about DS just to let them see our lives are really similar. <br /><br />Glad you had a relexing day even though you still looked the same :)<br /><br />Wish we could get the boys together, they would have so much funmy familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00965034997906612228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498941347207789497.post-85076635401028835742011-02-20T05:10:33.229-08:002011-02-20T05:10:33.229-08:00I could not agree more with your thoughts on this....I could not agree more with your thoughts on this. I always feel that need to tell people. Lately, I have been doing it less and less because I am so comfortable with the way things are. All they need to know is she is my daughter, and we love her as we do my other daughter. Sometimes it comes up, and sometimes is does not. But, it is always on my mind and I too suffer a lot from "verbal throw up" as you so called it! Thanks for sharing this. I am glad you enjoyed a day out pampering yourself...that always feels so nice.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01201595211241091609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498941347207789497.post-66090373462032996332011-02-19T23:12:36.079-08:002011-02-19T23:12:36.079-08:00I LOVE reading about your life, and your precious ...I LOVE reading about your life, and your precious boys! They are so cute. They really do remind me alot of my own chicks, except that I have a older girl. But her build and stuff remind me alot of your Luke... in girl form. I hope that makes sense. :-) Reid is adorable. Moving on... its ok that you feel the need to share. I might feel the need to share more if River wasn't always right next to me. Ha! Someday when he is in school more or doing something where we are not always togeather I too might feel that need also. Right now what I do is try to just be an example. I have never had a bad experience yet either. River seems to draw people in to him and everyones response is almost giddy. And from time to time I have seen some one look at us, but I can't tell if its becuz I'm round, or he has Ds... or if we just make this all look soooo good. Ha! ;-) I might be simple, but I just don't care what people think, if they are keeping it to themselves. ;-)<br />Have a great week!Coryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15564732166724462968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498941347207789497.post-59769217126092415752011-02-19T22:39:12.475-08:002011-02-19T22:39:12.475-08:00I love your boys!

I was chatting to someone with kids, talking about our kids, and I never felt the need to tell her about Zach's DS. We talked ages, and what grade our kids were in and it just never came up. And it actually felt good to not go down that road because frankly, I didn't want to tell this person. I didn't want to get the side head tilt and the "oh" with the look of pity. Although the whole time I felt it was on the tip of my tongue, it just never came up. It always does come up but this time, this person, it just didn't. And I don't think this particular person needed to know :)<br /><br />I am glad you had such a wonderful day. You deserve it!jenhiatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12543903634077854689noreply@blogger.com
