Lynette, Kaden & Jerry Lawrence

On August 28th my wife (Lynnette) and I had the privilege of attending a Down Syndrome awareness walk with our grandson Kaden Lawrence. The walk this year was held in Green Bay Wisconsin and was attended by 642 peo- ple. Our son Joshua and his wife Kristen have been involved with this association for the last 3 years and have built friendships and a bond with many of the other families. Lynnette and I have 5 grandsons who we love and support, but Kaden is a special young man and will have many challenges to overcome in his life. Kaden has a great support group from both sides of his family and is blessed to have parents that love him and see him only as their son and not a boy with a disability. Kaden had 4 generations of Lawrence’s at the event along with other family and friends. I challenge people to have a greater awareness and appreciation for families that have made a commitment to loving and raising any child with any type of disability. Kaden has given me a gift I could never buy and that is to love unconditionally and accept people for who they are. I thank the Lord every night in my prayers for giving us Kaden, who I’m proud to call grandson.
