Today Daddy and Mommy got to visit with Santa Claus and other grown-ups.....for a Holiday celebration. What a wonderful time we had.....Rick and I don't get out together often by ourselves and the day in New York City was just glorious. We were surrounded by great people and the food and drink was devine. When we got home, Emma Sage was so excited to see us and she kept asking me...."how was the city, Mommy?"....."How was New York City.....you model?".....lol!!! I am truly amazed at her memory and understanding of everything that is going around her and our day-to-day life. This is one myth of Down syndrome that I realize that I held, without realizing it, that she would not have this level of understanding. Even Mommy sometimes gets caught up in myths and it takes a little pixie to remind her to not prejudge or presume anything........ It has been a few years since the last time I was at Tavern on the Green....if you have never been, I encourage you to make the trip....it is truly an amazing New York City landmark and a dazzling must see [and taste]
