註釋"Noble beautifully communicates the joy and wonder of loving and living with a child with Down syndrome. A life-long spiritual seeker, Noble found she had too much to learn from Aaron Eagle if she could remain open to the many unique gifts he offered. "We take so much of life granted," writes Noble, "forgetting to be appreciative of the little pleasures or truly grateful for the big achievements. The look on Aaron's face when he accomplished something ordinary for the first time is a spiritual doorway for the most jaded among us." Walking through that "spiritual doorway" with a patient, positive, and receptive heart, Noble challenges and overcome her fears and the stereotypes about the differently-abled that permeate our culture. Through this gentle, wise, sometimes humorous account, we grow and learn with Noble. With a truthfulness that will hearten all who face similar challenges-and an inspiring message for all parents and children-Noble show show Aaron embodies the inner peace and openheartedness that many spend their lives trying to attain. She has taken a path that many others have walked, but few with her unique devotion, understanding, and perspective" -- Dust jacket.
