After 10 years and still living in the same area we still don't have any real connections...our Ds group is only 30 min away but I haven't found it to be a fit for us. Hence the blogging has been a "wonderful" blessing for me! I'm very thankful I have found blogs like yours.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16460398988175758818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24014954.post-231622169125851992009-04-10T06:47:00.000-04:002009-04-10T06:47:00.000-04:00I'm glad you're finally getting to connect with so...I'm glad you're finally getting to connect with someone IRL. I totall know what you mean. I haven't really connected with many people here. I met one lady and her kids at swimming lessons a few years ago, her youngest son has DS. We've stayed in contact and hang out when we can and it's been nice. Kaia's teacher also put me in contact with a mom that she knows from the other school she teaches at. This mom's little girl is in her class and has DS. the mom has heard about Kaia and wanted to me us and hang out. I'm so excited to have someone to really connect with. Our friends all love and accept Kaia, but I can't really "talk" to them about stuff...stuff you can't really get unless you live it.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13519879301526309089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24014954.post-20479473161565304792009-04-10T06:28:00.000-04:002009-04-10T06:28:00.000-04:00Always nice to have a good network surrounding you...Always nice to have a good network surrounding you even if Kayla cannot make it!chellehttp://soodz.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24014954.post-88093344642459961022009-04-10T01:14:00.000-04:002009-04-10T01:14:00.000-04:00How nice.

I hope it works out in your favor. I don't remember how I came across your blog, but so glad I did. I have a baby who was diagnosed with Ds. She will be two in May. It was difficult for me in the beginning, but reading your blog helped me. I also read Jennifer's book "Roadtrip to Holland." Best book I could've read. Thank you. I would love to see you on twitter or facebook. You have so much to share with other women. God bless.<BR/><BR/>JasmineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24014954.post-17181327320907284192009-04-09T23:53:00.000-04:002009-04-09T23:53:00.000-04:00how nice I wish I had someething like that whe...how nice I wish I had someething like that when I was younger to meet nice kids with disablities it is hard since I was mainstremed.
