[quote=Anonymous]It's so interesting how differently people approach things. I read her blog and I really like it! I find it inspiring even though I'm not as thin, pretty, crafty, don't have as many friends, and would most definitely not handle things as optimistically and with as much positivity as her. But I am a happy person and I don't feel bad about myself when I read her blog...I just think...if she can do it, maybe I can too. It inspires me. She does take beautiful photos and I really enjoy looking at them...mine are not as good, but again, I'm not a professional and it inspires me to learn more about my camera and take better pictures. I think she seems very sincere and honest but to me she just seems like an eternal optimist. Everyone has a different way of handling adversity and maybe hers is to live in the moment and the here and now. I understand that others in her situation who have a child unexpectedly born with a SN may not be as positive, or they may need to talk about it more, or they may be more worried...and I would too! But it takes all kinds, right? Her blog isn't going to appeal to everyone, but nothing does. And by the way I sent a small donation to her birthday fundraiser for Nella...she raised, in two weeks, slightly over $100,000 for the National Down Syndrome Society. Hard to criticize that when push comes to shove. [/quote]
