Elliot’s Expeditions: 31 for 21 – October 18

I loved this costume. It actually came from our dear friends, Rhett and Pam.

Elliot crashed hard after an eventful Halloween a few years ago!

The Down syndrome Creed

My face may be different but my feelings are the same. I laugh and I cry and take pride in my gains. I was sent here among you to teach you to love, as God in the heavens looks down from above. To Him, I'm no different His love knows no bounds; It's those here among you in the cities and towns, that judge me by standards that man has imparted, but this family I've chosen, will help me get started. For I'm one of the children so special and few, that came here to learn the same lessons as you. That love is acceptance, it must come from the heart; We all have the same purpose, though not the same start. The Lord gave me life to live and embrace, and I'll do it as you do, but at my own pace. ~Author Unknown
