October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month -- 31 for 21


Here is Gabby. Isn't she beautiful? In honor of National Down Syndrome Awareness Month in October, she is being showcased because she is a beautiful baby, who happens to have Down Syndrome.


I like what I read on Mr. Plinth meta thread: "a friend told him that the gene for fundamental human kindness is on the 21st chromosome and that those with T21 get an extra helping."

October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month. I am trying to learn.

October...what's up with October. Breast Cancer, Dental Hygiene, and Down Syndrome. Probably more too! That's a lot to be aware of in one month!

Gabby and her family look like models.
