For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

On #WorldDownSyndromeDay, Psalm 139 serves as a beautiful reminder of how people with Down's syndrome are fearfully and wonderfully made by a loving creator.

It’s 3/21 — #WorldDownSyndromeDay. My two year old son Winchester has Down syndrome. Here he is trying to set the cat on fire. 
And here is having snuck into a stroller to find a quiet place to read a book. He only knows a few words and doesn’t know his alphabet yet, but he loves books.
“Special” is sometimes used derogatorily, but special is just a really good word for him. Our older three kids act each day like they’ve never seen a baby before because there is just something so special about him. He has really blessed our family.
On #WorldDownSyndromeDay I am thinking about all the people with Down Syndrome I know and everything they have added to our world. My understanding of #neurodiversity and disability rights is richer and sharper because of them. Going to add some works to this thread.
"Letter To A Baby Who Was Thrown From A Bridge" was written by a woman with Down Syndrome, and we share it every Day of Mourning. It's one of the most powerful pieces of disability rights writing I've read. mouthmag.com/bridgebaby.htm
