The Best Part of Down Syndrome

There's a great post over at Down Syndrome New Mama where she asks "What's your favorite part about Down syndrome?" Here's my reply:

My favorite part is ironically the part that first alerts many expectant parents: my son's utterly kissable back of his neck. I adore having him melt into my arms with his fantastic hugs, then smooching on that sweet lil neck of his. I often wonder at this moment of pure happiness how anyone could see this part as a sign of something bad.

This is one of my favorite photos of his early months, the.best.giggles.in.the.world!



Have a happy Sunday, friends!
