    People rejoicing in what other CAN do, rather than mocking and belittling them for what they can't. We need so much more of this in our nation right now.

    Myself, my son, my daughter, several cousins and my God daughter all work in public schools with special needs students. Being around them makes you have a whole different outlook on life. They can be some of the happiest people even though they have challenges. Working with special needs youth has also given us a whole new appreciation and care for special needs adults.

    I worked with these beautiful people for a many years and they have a determination like noother. I found out that most of them put in a very large struggle in displaying strength. Some don't try to use their disability as an excuse for not attaining their purpose. Very competitive 😊!!

    A few years ago was lucky enough to drive a special needs teen to school a couple times a week. She was the brightest part of my day because she was always full of wonder and joy. She was always pointing out how amazing and cute things were. She taught me so much and I was always left thinking "that is amazing why didn't I notice or appreciate that?"
