It just doesn’t get any better than that. Good for those students at that school.

I never thought the day would come when I would agree wholeheartedly with a post of yours.

I was wrong.

Classy post.

Knowing that mothers are encouraged to terminate downs syndrome pregnancies in today’s society makes this story an amazing testimony to what is still good in our society. I am of the firm belief that God does not make mistakes when granting life and to think that there is something inherently wrong with having an extra chromosome such as this beautiful young lady in Texas is nothing more than pure evil.

God Bless Texas… (Was hard to say coming from a Kansan.)

That was a great article and post. It is things like this that give me hope for our future.

Shall we take it that this is another example of Republican Inspired Hatred?

Aledo is about 40 miles from me, and out of my normal circulation, therefore I don’t know all that much about the town.

But this speaks volumes.

tangible proof

God Bless those kids

Unable to read the entire post and linked article at the moment.

I have something in my eyes….

….all of the time. My kids play with downs syndrome children on their sports teams, in their scouting activities and in school.
The kids here do not consider special needs kids any different than any other kids. Texas is full of wonderful people and I would not consider living anywhere else.

This is a miraculous triumph of the heart. I’m so proud of the alumni of Toledo High.

The smallest ones are the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.

nuff said!

truly a moment of grace in an increasingly disgraceful world.

I read recently that in the UK fully half of all abortions where Downs is given as the reason the post-mortem shows the baby to have been perfectly normal.

Homecoming queen and king titles are bestowed on students with DS more than you can imagine.

People with DS have such a unique wisdom to offer society, and more and more student bodies are becoming aware of this fact.

Maybe my son will be recognized as such one day

Thank you for posting this, I never get tired of reading stories like this.

I have observed something of a trend towards students with disabilities winning homecomming titles over the last few years.

My daughter graduated last year from a small Louisiana High School. At the Senior Prom when they announced the Prom King, the winner said he would like to pass his scepter and crown over to someone else – he called up a learning disabled senior and crowned him. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room.
