🎙️When I asked Grace what is was like to be a single mom raising a toddler in a teepee with no running water or electricity, she laughed and said she was lucky because Ian didn’t toddle very much. In fact, babies with Down syndrome tend to take it slower than most kids and as Ian grew, Grace made a point at taking everything slowly but seriously and to focus on life skills.

As an educator, she had worked with many kids before advocating for her own to get what he needed educationally. Looking back, she couldn’t stress enough the power of community and common sense.

If you check our instagram you will see that Ian may have begun his life in slow motion, but he surely turned into one serious showman.🎙️

I hope you enjoy every bit of this wild ride with Grace. Let us know what you think !
