Most parents want their child to born with ten fingers 

and ten toes,but it's what's inside that they do not know.

Countless doctor visits and late nights, being loved is half the fight.

From chromosomes to bones there are

still some things that are unknown.

But to see a smile on a special needs child 

makes life all worth wild,

Just because they are a little different does not mean they

are not smart. They are smart in their own way, from they way they

understand things to they way they say "hey"

So tell me then how do we let the ridicule come through

they are no different than me and you.

They're just special.
