In this episode I talk with Jennifer Anderson.  I promise not all of my guests are named Jennifer.  If they were, I’d have to change the name to the Jennifer Show.  That would just be silly.   However, if your name IS Jennifer and you’d like to be a guest, let me know.  How hard could it be to change the podcast name,  right?  But I digress.  This Jennifer showed up the day we recorded wearing a sparkly tiara because she’s just that fun.  She was also wearing a special shirt that announces to the world how proud she is to be an advocate for Macie, her  high energy, dance loving, prayerful 14 year old daughter who has Down syndrome.  Jennifer believes in treating a child with special needs just as you would any other child.  She encourages setting goals, being consistent with expectations and embracing your child’s hopes and dreams.

In this episode I talk with Jennifer Vincent,  part time nurse and busy, full time mother of 3, who shares about her youngest daughter,  Alexandra.   Born with Down syndrome and a heart defect,  Alexandra was diagnosed with diabetes at age 9.   She is also a thrill loving, sensory seeker who water skis, zip lines and indoor sky dives.  Alexandra has a very full life with lots of opportunity and adventure, including  going to Nationals in Chicago to represent Texas in the Miss Amazing Teen Pageant.  Jennifer believes having a disability should not stop your child from doing things.  You just need to provide the necessary accommodations and give them every opportunity to try new things.
