In this warm Thanksgiving episode of So Let’s Be Friends, Charlotte gathers with her cousins to talk about what it’s like growing up together — cousins with special needs and cousins who are typical — and how family naturally teaches love, patience, and inclusion.
Together they share memories, laughter, lessons they’ve learned from each other, and the gratitude that comes from belonging to a family that loves every ability.
If your family is coming together this week or has come together, this episode is a reminder that inclusion begins at home — one cousin, one moment, one small act of love at a time.
