Honest insights on growing up with a sibling who is "different"

 

What was it like growing up with Leanne?

 

How did negative reactions from others affect you?

 

How did your husband respond when you approached him with the idea of adopting a baby with Down syndrome?

 

 

Answers to these questions and more can be found in a guest blog post I wrote for the blog, Blessed by Brenna.  Brenna is a beautiful little girl who was born with a very rare skin condition called Halequin Ichthyosis.  I've known her mother since childhood and when she asked me to do a guest blog post as part of her "Celebrate Visual Differences" series, I was honored to take part.  Courtney, thank you for allowing me to share my honest insights on what it was like growing up with a sibling who is "different".
