Happy Down Syndrome Awareness Month!

October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month. This is the perfect opportunity to educate our community with facts and stories about Down syndrome. 

We are joining the 31 for 21 Challenge.  Six years ago, a mother of a child with Down syndrome came up with an idea for raising awareness....the 31 for 21 Challenge.  The blog challenge is to blog for 31 days for (T)21. Blog every day in the month of October in honor of National Down Syndrome Awareness Month.

Down syndrome is medically known as Trisomy 21. Trisomy 21 is for the 3 copies of the 21st chromosome that individuals with Down syndrome have.

Please share and spread the word!
