Yes!  That's Aidan's favourite word these days.  Yes!

Our words are important!  The word "retard" and "retarded" used in everyday speech to mean "stupid" is not cool. I'm not doing this to be politically correct.  I'm doing it because the ripple effect is powerful and I really want my children (all of them) to grow up in a kind and caring community.

Thanks for being mindful. . . it means the world to us!
