I must admit I'm having a little of the baby blues, which surprises me because I never thought I would and didn't with either of the girls. But even as tough or hectic as I think my life is sometimes, I know so many others having much bigger struggles. I am positive you have done a fantastic job raising Leslie and although it may be a different season now, God has equipped you for the task of having an adult daughter! Don't let the enemy tell you any different!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16343535824258264297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7980342231841666871.post-17375174283794150472011-04-05T09:53:35.098-07:002011-04-05T09:53:35.098-07:00Laura, thanks for sharing a piece of your life wit...Laura, thanks for sharing a piece of your life with me. i find myself wanting to know more about you and your daughter. i pray the Lord continues to bless you, i know you are already blessed because you were blessed the day she was born, no matter what you face, you will face them together. and make each a memory- that's what i tell myself... missieMissiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09897774655888109253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7980342231841666871.post-5383689381862217762011-04-05T08:40:32.432-07:002011-04-05T08:40:32.432-07:00I resemble that remark. And I need to remember He ...I resemble that remark. And I need to remember He always knows and has a purpose for my understanding. Even before we knew any of our children were "different," I always felt that just about the time I had their moods/reactions/motivations/routines down pat they would change. Living with children of any mind is a constantly evolving challenge, always overseen by our Heavenly Father (even though we don't always notice).<br /><br />One saving grace that I am thankful for is that so many unique thinking children, do not always follow the typical prepubescent path. I am thankful that their literal way of thinking does not seem to be affected as much by the hormonal and emotional changes of the typical thinking children. Their changes are much more subtle, and thank God, since we are still trying to learn how to speak literally and without loopholes. <br /><br />I pray to learn to be accepting of my own health and emotional challenges, as well as the ones He has set forth for me as a parent.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00150369775706943323noreply@blogger.com
