Has Down syndrome hurt us?

This is an article written by Amy Julia Becker.  Last year, my friend Lisa and I met her at the Festival of Faith and Writing at Calvin College. This coming April she will be a conference speaker instead of a conference goer!  While Lisa and I are just a little bit jealous about her status change, I can't wait to connect with her again.  Please read her article.  It's truth brought tears of recognition and gratitude this morning.
