I read a story on Facebook
about a little girl with Down ’s syndrome who befriended a boy in the 4th
grade. The boy always watched out for
her and included her and he even made a promise to take her to the prom in high
school. Later they would lose touch but
as fate would have it through a football game they would reconnect in high
school. The boy knew he had to make good
on his promise and he ended up taking her to the prom.
This story really touches my
heart but not because Mary has Down’s syndrome and a popular high school
quarterback took her to the prom. This
story touches my heart because Mary’s story is so connected to my own...
Longing to be looked after,
protected, included and made to feel special.
As a little girl who grows into a woman we long for these things from a
Loving and Living God.
Mary’s dream becomes our
dream.

stunned!) By Emerald Pellot
