Joshua - had he remained with us - would have lived a life unlike his sisters. I often wonder what exactly our lives would have been like, had he stayed. I know it would have involved countless doctor's visits, never walking, never talking, and countless other things that I don't have to consider with Oceana or Naomi. I would have done it - GLADLY - because we were so proud of him. We love him. He's ours.

I'll join you in that! My dad's sister had Downs syndrome & lived with us several times over my life...precious & loving...God's creation. She passed away 1 year ago & everyone misses her so much...
