The author writes with such honesty. She doesn't try to tone down the hard times, yet she also is able to share the joys too. She helps you see, truly see, that those with special needs have value as well. They also have something to share with the world.I thoroughly enjoyed the chapter actually written by her daughter. I appreciated the Bible verses at the beginning of each chapter, and how she tied God into it all. I highly recommend this book.
