Guest guest Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 Last Friday I took a to her speech therapy session. When I was getting the girls out of the car I noticed this other car parking beside me. I see an elderly couple and a young boy getting out of the car. I usually look like a Christmas tree by the time I'm ready to move, caring a backpack, having a purse dangling around my neck and caring 2 infant car seats. If you're ever looking to spark a conversation with complete strangers, this is " the look " you need. It never fails.Ha! Anyways, to make a long story short, we get into the building (a house) and all of us end up in this small hallway. There is a daycare on the main floor and this is where the boy was coming. He was a handsome 5 years old and gave a lot of attention to both girls. The couple I mentioned were his grandparents. At one point the grandmother looks at the girls, and when she saw a she said VERY excited " She has Down Syndrome! " ,then comes, gives me a BIG hug and says in the warmest and most caring voice " You are one lucky lady! You know that! Right? " Her little man was 5 and had DS. He was adopted when he was 2 years old and there were not enough words for her to describe how much joy he had brought to their family. I wish for all of you to bump into " my angel " one day. On Friday she took the shape of a grandmother and made my day. I am one lucky lady...
