Future

The future is a big unknown for me when it comes to Quinn. Most of the time, I just try not to think about it. I try to stay in the here and now and avoid any thoughts about what will be her life in the future. I think it is in the future where most of the thoughts and assumptions that I had way back when about individuals with disabilities seep in. It is the point where I am most vulnerable to the stereotypes and assumptions.

But these are the things that I do know. In the future, Quinn will...

Have style!
Be happy!
And define herself!

Things like the following clip make me happy when I see the happiness on these young adults' faces.
