Wonderboys

Every large adoptive family with special needs kids has at least one wonderboy. You know, the kid, when something is lost or broken, whose name comes to mind first. The prime suspect.

We have two of them. Both have Down Syndrome. One is 14, and the highest functioning of all my DS kids, and the other is a 3 year old in a 20 year old's body.

The 14 yr old wonderkind, Jeremy, is home with the flu, as are Emily, Ross and Jay. I wouldn't wish this bug on anyone, but it sure makes for a quiet day here It's noon and Jeremy just got off the couch.

I just hope that Jeremy goes back to school before Will gets the bug.

And, no, we have no wondergirls. Our girls give us very little angst.
