    • About Me

      I am a mom of 4. I live in a small town on Long Island and there are very few children with DS. Michael is the first child in 30+ years to attend our school district. He is a sweet boy and he puts a smile on everyone's face. I just hope that I am doing what I am supposed to do to make him not only a happy child, but one that can reach his fullest potential. I question myself all the time and have little resources where I'm at.

      OMG you are so right about those elevators. We are home and DJ is such an easy going baby. He pretty much sleeps a good portion of the day and night. I guess that is normal for a newborn.

      Mom to 4 Beautiful kids, 2,4,6&8. My 6 Year old has DS and is a great joy.

    • Close Anxiety Disorders in Children

      My daughter since birth has had anxiety issues, she couldn't even be put in the nursery. At 3 months if she didn't know you you could not have eye contact with her or she would scream. I would tell people please don't touch or look at her. She just started kindergarten and chews a lot of gum. She is very quiet, not a lot of confidence and the teacher is not very supportive. Picks and chews her fingers and has a very hard time with bed and new faces.
