I’m a day late in posting for World Down Syndrome Day, but I loved this video so much that I just had to share it with you!

This was made by fifty mothers of four year olds with Down syndrome in the UK who were on a Facebook Down syndrome group together. Each one signed the song together with their child while sitting in the front seat of their cars, and a couple of dads edited the clips and put it together.

What’s the message?To me it shows the joy and love in having a child with Down syndrome, and I think the hashtag that accompanies it is powerful in its simplicity – #wouldn’tchangeathing.

I know, Down syndrome is supposed to be a bad thing, right? But that just hasn’t been my experience at all. And I love seeing so many other moms expressing the same thing.

What do you think?
