I hope y'all had a wonderful time yesterday. You probably talked too much, ate too much, and I hope were surrounded by love.
I ran across some interesting videos this week on YouTube (yeah, yeah, I spend too much time on YouTube) having to do with disabilities. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If so, these are worth millions of words. I always say disability is a perception problem. In some ways we are more creative, determined, and more adaptable than our able bodied counter parts. The able bodied are hampered from reaching their full potential.

The first one I saw was at Rose B. Fischer's blog. It's called the Social Model of Disability by Geoff Adams- Spink. Just think if the shoe was one the other foot as this animation demonstrates so well.
So we're all in this together. Stand up and be heard.
Loved this post.
