Today is not so bad. In fact today I am watching my son play and can almost ignore his disabilities completely. He's just so happy doing what he's doing and he's finding his own way of accomplishing the things he wants to do. Usually he cries for me to get a toy or help him and won't stop until I do. Today he is content and is finding ways to do things himself. I don't know if anyone will read this but this is HUGE!
Today is not so bad. I have found time to myself to blog to an invisible mass of readers who are out there and my son is still happily playing by himself. Every now and then he checks to make sure I'm still close by. But that's okay. I want him to still need me, but this little flair of independence is welcomed and encouraged.
Today is not so bad. I'm starting to think this day can only get better. Not only has my son played happily on his own he is now singing to himself and smiling. There is nothing like having a happy child to remind you of the joy that life has to offer.
Some days are VERY bad. They are full of challenges, struggles and in general not fun stuff. I don't like those days. I have to dig deep to find the strength to get through those days and I'm very thankful when they are over and I can put an end to the day. But just when I think I can't do another bad day I get a day like today. I get a few moments to breath and just enjoy being a mom. We get an opportunity to stay sheltered in our house and away from prying eyes and to just be us in our own little world. On those days I can't help but think today is not so bad.
