Friendships

My biggest fear when we found our Ruby had Down syndrome was “is she going to have true, equal friendships? Will she have a community of people that love her for who she is and value her?” From the beginning we have tried to surround her with people that believe in her like we do. People who see her value and worth and have the same high expectations that we do. We have included her in every aspect of life…from school to neighborhood parties, dance classes…any and everything we could. She has proven time and time again that she -not only BELONGS- but that she brings so much AWESOME with her! She has made incredible friendships and connections and I see what an impact she is making in their lives…just by being RUBY!
