BENJAMIN LEE

As many of you know, October is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month! A number of years ago I wrote an acrostic name poem in honor of this, and I felt like trying one again. This is for you, Benjamin!...

BEAUTIFUL BOY, BORN A BLESSING







ENJOYS THE SIMPLE THINGS (INCLUDING ELMO!)








NEVER HOLDS A GRUDGE







JOY-FILLED








ALWAYS AFFECTIONATE







MUSIC LOVER







INSPIRING INDIVIDUAL









NAME MEANS "SON OF MY RIGHT HAND"







LOVES TO LAUGH









EXPENDS EFFORT TO LEARN AND GROW






ETERNAL DESTINY OF ENDLESS POSSIBILITY




WE LOVE YOU, BENJAMIN, AND WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU!
