Lucas Wondra has accomplished something even many so called normal boys never accomplish. He became an Eagle Scout.

What a great story and thanks for posting it!

I was a Scout but not very ambitious. That a Down's Syndrome kid could achieve this changes my perception of Down's folks -- sweet people -- there's a younger Down's woman at the local theatre and frankly she's a far better greeter/ticket-taker than the too-often-surly teens working there and other local theatres.

There is more I could say but won't.

I've known some Down's kids, one fairly well.

They're friendly, loving, enthusiastic . . . and stubborn. When they have a hard-charging, inventive family and friends that will sit down and brainstorm ways for them to work around their particular disabilities, they will go all-out to succeed.
