noticing differences

Peanut's new day care has a special little boy who has downs syndrome. At the park the day before he took a little spill out of the swing and got his foot stuck in the process (he's fine though)....

Peanut: "I noticed that his eyes look a little different"

Day care: "Yes, they are. There's a lot of people with different eyes. Like chinese people's eyes look different too. He has what's called downs syndrome, that's why his eyes look a little bit different"

Day care's daughter: "and he's just a little bit slower"

Peanut: "Ooooooh, so that's why he fell outta the swing yesterday! Because he couldn't see properly"

Our day care provider thought this was really sweet.
