Im not satisfied with the ending to be honest.

Also about this book said to be focused about dealing with the struggles of raising a kid with ds, it wasnt really like that IMO. It was more focused about the Henry's life without their daughter.

More focused on the Henry's and less of Phoebe and Caroline. 

It could be better tbh. But it was a nice read.

A little repetitive + I thought the focus would be on the daughter with Down syndrome and not on the adults.
