Even Bad Words Are Miracles (Day 356 of 365)
Monday, November 15th 2010
Stacey, Our Speech Pathologist always comes to the house on Monday afternoon to work with both of the girls. She usually arrives at 1:45pm.
Usually, I am still at work at this time and Taylor has usually been home for about 10 minutes before she gets to the house. Jorden happened to be home sick today, so Jase was there watching him. Stacey came over to work with Tay… and the following exchange took place…ENJOY!
Eden is Away, The Sitter is There to Play! (Day 349 of 365)
Monday, November 8th 2010
Eden’s away for a few hours…and the Sitter is here to play… It is evident that the kids have a blast when I leave. Check out the fun they had!
Unsuspected Heros (Day 344 of 365)
Wednesday, November 3rd 2010
This morning as I sent Taylor to the school bus to go to school I started thinking about how grateful I am that all three of my kiddos have very kind and accomodating bus drivers this year. They will always wait a few extra minutes for them if they are running late, help them on the bus, and show genuine interest in them. In the past, this has not been the case. Let me just tell you, that having an impatient Bus Driver who could care less…could really make a single Mom’s life much more difficult than it has to be… This got me thinking….. How often do we overlook the importance of a Bus Driver?
Independence Or Lack There Of. This Is The Question…(Day 338 of 365)
Wednesday, October 27th 2010
The question of the day for you is…when is it time to let go?
When do I know to give Taylor or Erin or even Jorden more independence? Now of course this question is coming from a woman who has 2 out of 3 of her children who have always needed more supervision and more assistance in their lives. I have never raised a normal, healthy child…therefore; circumstances are much different for my children then they are the average child. I don’t know what it is like when raising the average child. When do you even let go in that case?
