💫🧚‍♀️ We are celebrating World Down Syndrome Day from Neverland ☁️ 🌈 The analogy is perfect: You cannot get to Neverland without a guide like Peter Pan … you are afraid to go with him (or her) into the unknown but once you arrive you are surrounded with so much beauty your fears dissipate as fast as they arrived. When you are in Neverland you are forever young; celebrating and enjoying things that are not “Age appropriate” according to society and happy to do so. There are villians and challenges here that we also must face and overcome every, single day. Somehow we always seem to. The things we once thought important cease to be and you have an entirely new perspective and outlook on the world and all the people in it once you’ve been there. People who have never been to Neverland will never truly understand the complexities, beauty, heartbreak and triumphs that await you there. I feel sorry for them, not for Blake, Amelia or anyone else who is a member of this diverse and rich community. 💫 our wish is the same every year. Please include our kids. Please educate yourselves and be a vessel of education and accurate information for others around you. Help to create a world that is welcoming, compassionate, understanding and willing to make accommodations so we can all have access to our surroundings. All means ALL. No exclusions or exceptions. Remeber: anything is possible with a little faith, trust and pixie dust… ✨💫🧚‍♀️💛💙 #WDSD2023 #WDSD #DownSyndrome #dualdiagnosis #tinkerbell #FaithTrustandPixieDust #worlddownsyndromeday #downsyndromeawareness #inclusionmatters #Inclusion #disabilityawareness #PeterPan @nikivader @disney @disneyparks (at NeverLand) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqEJ3HbSaE5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
