Theresa is still not back at St Ninians and they told us today we have to vote if we want her back on the 22nd of March. This is so painful. I'm only hanging in because I want to continue to have her preaching in my life. I been through one of these situations before in Bendigo and a young priest just left without warning. We all grieved as I am sure he did too.
On the up side I always sit with Marie (45+), who has Downs Syndrome and have a cupper after the service. When I first started going there I realized she always sat at a table away from everyone else, with no other chairs for people to sit down and talk to her if they wanted to. I cant stand her being ostrasized and I always sit with her. Marie is the grown up one and has the tea and I have the cordial. Shes such a darling and loves everyone. Sometimes when certain types walk past us, she sticks her thumb up and starts laughing really loud. I have to join her coz its so bloody funny. Sometimes I stick my finger up too, but I hide it behind my other hand so only Marie can see. She loves it, I love it, its out secret.
I found this interesting article on Judith Scott, an amazing weaver who had Downs Syndrome and total deafness. If you go to this site you will see an adorable picture of her twin sister and her as Littlies. http://www.hidden-worlds.com/judithscott/entwined.htm
