You came into this world
A little different than most
But born to me as my son
Who I love and will always hold close
You’re filled with such joy
And see the world through loving eyes
That I could see past your disability
Was really no big surprise
There was so much about your condition
I had to study and learn
But with an open heart and mind
It never gave me a moment of concern
Look at you now
A handsome young boy
Learning and growing
And filling everyone’s heart with joy
I am your proud father
And will do all that I can
To make sure you develop
Into a self sufficient young man
So even though you were born
With an extra chromosome
We will make the best life together
And overcome your Down’s syndrome
