"Love me. Love me. I'm not what you expected, but oh, please love me."
I remembered asking my Dad when I was just a little girl trying to figure out the world around me, "Daddy, if I had Down Syndrome, would you still love me the same amount?"
I remembered him saying, "No, I'd love you more."
"Why, Dad?"
"Because the world might love you a little less."
And I totally cried some more.
I don't mean to be bossy, but go read Kelle and Nella's story. You really should.
Wow. Thanks for posting this. We'll have to talk about it more.
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome story about Dad.
