One of my primary reasons for beginning the blog was to be available to new parents, or parents-to-be of a sweet angel with Down syndrome. My first real fear was that our Shawn would not "connect". I wanted to him to feel love, show love, want love, etc. I wanted him to adore his brothers and need his mommy. I didn't understand Down syndrome, at all. I'm blessed to be able to witness his daily connections. Here is a video of him connecting with himself, in the mirror....just before I gave him the most handsome haircut ever. It's precious.
If you are new to this, or if you are expecting a child with this diagnosis....please do not hesitate to contact me. I have much to share.

Hi Melissa!
Such a cute son and video! I have never actually met you, but I attend Crosspoint and stumbled upon your blog from Without Wax. I'm considering a career change to real estate and am glad to hear how much you enjoy it. I'l have to pick your brain about it sometime. Thanks for the great blog!
I'm a fellow Cross Point blogger and that video is just precious!!
Hi Melissa! I'm a CP blogger, too! :) I work in the nursery and kept Shawn several times before he moved up and I think he's just the cutest, most precious thing!
