Opis

An expanded, paperback edition of the kindle bestseller .....Twenty-two years ago, when I was twenty-seven, I gave birth to a baby girl........ Thus begins this touching, heartwarming, oft times humorous, and true series of vignettes of life in the trenches raising a spitfire baby girl with Down Syndrome. This volume is filled with inspirational quotes, beautiful photographs, and an overall message of the joy of life. While each section is a complete tale within itself, Treading Lightly: Reflections of Steps Along The Path, follows the steps of "Our Girl's" transformation from birth through the years of "her college." Leaving the reader as "Our Girl" steps teetering upon the threshold of the adult world. Confronting life as a young woman: bright, intelligent, fun loving and eager to learn. Facing her future with hope, a bit of fear, and the never ending love of her parents, brothers, and family. Tales to be cherished, pondered; read and re read. Take them to your heart, and remember: "A society is judged by how it treats its most helpless members: the very old, the very young, and the handicapped." Share the wealth. And pass the message along.
