Today, 03.21, is World Down Syndrome (a diagnosis in which the 21st chromosome splits three times) Day.
To celebrate I am sharing three 21-word poetic (albeit kind of bad poetry, but hey I’m trying) tributes about my son David.
- Hanging out with David is like finding out that all the colorfully wrapped presents under the tree are just for you. 
- David defined is the guy who wakes up each morning, looks out the window, smiles, throws his arms up shouting SUN! 
- David reminds me of four-leaf-clover, flourishing as a rare delight, bringing happiness in the mystery of treasured, unexpected exceptions. 
As an added bonus, closing out with a 21 word salute!
Cheers to everyone born with an extra 21st chromosome along with all you amazing people who know, care and support them!
