This is my best friend and big sister Grace.

Some say I have a disability.

Grace says I have an ability that many be jealous of...

The ability to love unconditionally, be nonjudgmental, and I'm NOT afraid to be ME. =)

I have Down Syndrome. I have an extra chromosome.

Grace says "Real friends don't count chromosomes."

People sometimes use really mean words but A LOT of people love me.

These mean words HURT but they don't describe me at all.

I am... SILLY. FUNNY. HELPFUL. LOVING. SMART.

And I have feelings just like you and your friends.

I'll give you a chance if you give me one, too.
