This is for AB&Cs Mom

You asked what was on Emma Sage's T-shirt......

field hockey 345

I do think in the one picture the little girl was looking to read her shirt, but I have to share, that I have so many pictures that I have taken over the years, that capture how children 'stare' when they meet Emma Sage for the first time [or two] and are trying to figure out what is 'different' about her.

Isn't this the coolest shirt? I got it at the Princeton Down syndrome Awareness program. I can't remember the name of the vendor, I assume they must have a website and if I find it in a search, I'll post it.

Thank you for sharing. I LOVE that shirt! Isn't it interesting how some kids just seem to know that something is a bit different with our kids? I wish I knew just what those kids were thinking. Although, I have found most kids are so excepting. I still think most kids are okay with other kids being a little different. Sadly though, the parents are the ones who tend to shy away.

That is a really cool shirt. Yes, I find people in the grocery store or at Target looking at John Michael. I'd say most "know", but some probably just can't put their finger on what makes him different. What a cool way to educate people.
