		<description>Hi there!
I just joined and am getting familiar with the site. My wife and I started a website, too. Its great how all these Down syndrome families want to share their lives.
We just started our site, atypicalson.com and its intended to chronicle our journey adopting a child with Down syndrome. We just started and would love to know what other parents think!</description>

		<description>Hi all,
Would you consider adding my son Jacob&#039;s website to yours? The website was set up by the Gulf Shores, Alabama Kiwanis Club.
www.JacobHalpin.com

Jacob is the only high school varsity athlete with Down syndrome to have earned All-State honors, this was from within a 402 school category. He is also the first athlete from the United States to hold world records through the Down Syndrome International Swimming Organization.

Jacob earned 4 varsity letters in swimming, All-State &amp; All-County honors, participated in 4 High School State Championship Swim Meets, received the Alabama High School Sports Magazine&#039;s Humanitarian Award and was a co-captain for his high school swim team in his senior year. 

Jacob is a Trisomy 21 and began his competitive swimming career rather late during the summer between 7th and 8th grade when he joined the local age group swim team.
