Brothers


My face was so red and puffy from crying hard but it was time to let the rest of our family meet our new baby. My first born son Randall was the first to met Owen I told him "We think the baby has Down syndrome" and he reached out and touched me and said "its okay mum he'll be fine, he's my brother and I love him". It was a naive yet perfectly wise statement a statement of unconditional love. That moment was so touching, so profound I will never forget it and it carried me through these early weeks.

Next was baby/toddler Cyrus's turn to met our newest baby, and of course there was Love so tender and unconditional, nothing but love for our new baby. You can see it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96b6mDndeDE&NR=1
