31 for 21: Tree huggers

October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month. So we’ll highlight a few little special things about what DS means in our house.

[I have Down syndrome. I like to play outside and climb trees.]

We have a tree in the backyard that I always want to climb in.  Like always. Like I don’t want to play on anything else, just “climb the tree, Mommy! climb the tree!”  The problem is that there’s no branches to climb on. Just one place way high up where Daddy put us once so we can sit.  We’re kind of squished in there, but I still keep asking to do it.  KiKi decided to try it, too.
