MEET JUNE 💞
“June is 5 and has Down syndrome, a chromosomal condition marked by a third copy of the 21st chromosome.
June is our middle child and has an older and younger brother. Some may think that her position in the sibling line up and having two brothers contributes to her extra spunk, but June’s fierce, strong will has been there from the beginning.
When she was born I made a promise to myself that I’d treat her the same as my other kids - always assume she is able unless she needs something different for her safety or own empowerment. I think her independence is a blend of her family’s belief in her and her innate born belief in herself. And, as June grows and gets older I am reminded again and again that I am never convincing myself she is able, June is always showing me she is.
Our Madsen bike has been such a gift to allow June to ride along with us and her older brother while she still shares the bucket with her little bro.” @suzburns, superstar mom 🌟
