Committing to the path of adoption is not an easy choice to make: there are many unknowns and familiarizing the newcomer with the home, the parents and everything that will surround him from now on, is an arduous path. However, whoever decides to take a child with him, for whatever reason, performs an act of absolute love, both for himself and for the child he is going to raise. When it comes to children with disabilities and needing much more attention, everything takes on even more importance.
This is exactly what happened in the story we want to tell you: two parents chose to take a little girl with Down syndrome with them and she was able to thank them right away with a unforgettable way.
Baby H, is the name given to the little girl by the association that followed her story, became very famous on the web for a video in which she is the protagonist. At the age of eight months, the little girl was brought back to her parents in Texas and it was there, in the comfort of her home, that she gave them one of the most beautiful moments of their lives.
In the video posted on Facebook, the little girl appears lying on her stomach on a play mat. In the background, we hear the soft voice of her mother asking her how her day is going. Question to which Baby H answers with a radiant, unique and wonderful smile.
Fascinated by the expression of her daughter, the woman insists by telling her that she likes this way of smiling at her and that she would like to see this pretty expression again. The little girl then manifests a renewed joy, in front of which the woman cannot contain her emotion.
The same was true for the many Internet users who saw the post. Many were captivated by the sweetness of these images and left a few words of affection for Baby H. “She is wonderful and her smile will make me happy for several days”, said one of them, “I can’t stop looking at her and smiling.” Reflections with which we can only agree.
The sharing of the photos, however, was not only done to show the sweetness of the child, but also for another purpose, as his mother explains: “When Baby H was eight months old, she looked at us and we gave this serene expression, we laughed a lot and decided to share it. These photos are a real treasure for us and we want to show people how special children with Down syndrome are. They are a great beauty.”
A very nice way to tell everyone not to be discouraged by the diagnosis , both in the case of the adoption of children with this disability as in that of a pregnancy. Admittedly, everyday life is not easy, but looking at your child and seeing such a smile on his face is something that overcomes all difficulties.
It only remains for us to wish this sweet little girl a peaceful and happy life with her family.
