A friend of mine Andrea Roberts, who many of you know as the owener of the reeces rainbow site, always send out great e-mails to lots of people and someone replied to all, and this was sent to me from her. her nameis Sarah and i asked her permission to post this here as I thought it might help someone just by reading it!!! Sure made me SMILE!!!!

here it is as it was sent to me:

I want to share with everyone something that happened the past weekend with
Adam.

Let me give you a little history of Adam. He is 23 years old and has a mind
that is beyond belief. Andrea and Reece have met Adam and know shat type of
young man he is. This past weekend we finished painting our new shed and were
in the process of cleaning out the garage and moving things to the shed. As you
may be aware it had raining quite a bit and the ground was a little wet and
muddy. After four trips to the back of carrying just a couple of item, we
looked up and he had done what we as adults never thought of. He is the story.

We had a somewhat large container that is a roll able open cooler. I had put
some item in it and thought of rolling it to the shed. It never would have made
it up the hill. So, we were taking items out and just carrying them to the
back. We looked up and here comes Adam with the container on the hand dolly.
The large red container has a white strap across it so he was holding it with
one had and pushing the hand dolly with the other. Now why in the world didn’t
we think of doing this? I laughed about it and said only Adam would think of
doing something like this and his words were it doesn’t take a rocket scientist
to figure some things out, just a kid with Down syndrome. That is my Adam.
