October 6-pictures for Down syndrome awareness month

We used to go to Gymboree every week. You make a name tag for you and your child while there. On Valentines day when Max was a little over 3 1/2 years old he made his own tag. I never practiced name writing with him, neither had school. He just saw it SO much, he knew what to do I guess. So here is the very first time Max ever wrote his name...
Here is a picture of him from that same day. Isn't he sweet. Notice the Down syndrome awareness pin he had to try on?!

That is so sweet! I love that you've kept it all these years, too. And I still hold by the fact that he's the cutest kid ever. Just look at him!
