I guess i was hoping that this little guy has already taught those who have known him, or maybe haven't met him but see his pics and read the blog and know me, something new about: all the things he WILL be able to do in life, simple facts about DS, The range of emotions joys and concerns that a parent goes through. Etc.
My error is tying up too much expectation to Facebook and what I post there. I don't want to be one of those, "like" this post...people. Or laying out every emotion on fb looking for support. It all seems a little desperate.
Still though, one friend responded. One. If I have a friend who has a child with autism or a friend going through chemotherapy or a friend who has something that has changed their life so much I would want to know a little bit more about it. I wondered if when I had a son with down syndrome if any of my friends or family took it upon themselves to do a little investigating to find out what down syndrome means. I know some did. And I know absolutely without a doubt that my loved ones support us and love us deeply.
Maybe I should just leave this internet thinking for a while.
