We are a group of friends who have come together because we share the common bond of caring for someone who has Trisomy 21. We are here to share therapy tips, medical issues, laughs, accomplishments and yes, even frustrations. We embrace what Trisomy 21 has brought into our lives. We feel that it has taught us to appreciate the true meaning of life. We count our children as blessings! We will fiercely protect them and fight for their lives to be valued just as all other peoples' are. We share our pictures, our stories and our hearts here not only to provide friendship and support for each other, but also in the hopes that others will open their minds and their hearts to our unique children and, in turn, make a better world for everyone.

I have Welcome to the Great Mysterious on order at my library, so since I had to wait for that one to come in I picked up a couple of Lorna's other books.

I liked the picture on the cover..lol..but in reading it, it's about a group of women who all live near each other and despite their different life stories and histories come together and bond a very close friendship thru a book club they start.
Needless to say this made me smile and think of the little club we're trying to start here. I would like to suggest this for our first discussion.

I also would like to set up a time once a month to all get together in chat to discuss our books we choose to read together.

I am almost done with this book because I cannot put it down, and it really is a good book. I usually read more then one book from any given author so I can get a feel for their writing,,and because I don't like one doesn't mean I won't like another.

It's a really easy, good, can't put it down to go to sleep kind of book!

How long do we have to read it ? I just came across this forum and I am such a reader I have been reading books by Jean Sasson all about women in Iran and Saudi Arabia and how they are treated..very sad...

So I am so ready for this book

Becki - just let me know when you want the chat to be and I will post it on the chat page.

I will also post it on the front page of this site so that people know about it. I think its a great idea. I do read some for enjoyment in the summer but often don't find the time I would like to to read during the school year. I will try to keep up .
