Blessings Times Two

Welcome to our little piece of the world. We are blessed with health, happiness, & families. We have been blessed twice by different birthfamilies. Each birthfamily was at a time in their life when they needed us & we needed them. We each have been able to bless the other. So this blog is primarily for our children's birthparents who blessed us with the most precious gift of being parents. Thank you for allowing us to be blessed with the precious gift of children.

Life has not been a bowl of cherries...

I just don't know how to say it, w/out just saying...having a child with any sort of special needs is hard.  Life definitely isn't, hasn't been a bowl a bowl of cherries!!  Frankly, it can stink & has stunk lately.   And I just feel pretty overwhelmed lately...between doctors visits, test, pressing for other specialized testing, working with special services to get some needed equipment for Hayden...piles of paper work that need to be filed & followed up on, emails sent, etc.
Anyhow,  I've stumbled across this really great post written by a mom of a child with special needs...it pretty much sums up A LOT of what we go through daily, weekly, monthly...some of the same emotions, etc.  The article isn't long.  I invite you to read it...here.
Now I'm going to go burn some steam & make chocolate covered pretzels...mindless activity instead of filing papers, etc.


Oh and Hayden's repeated test two weeks ago was MUCH better...thank you Lord.
