I have been slacking on my posts lately, as it’s been a difficult time for me. After our visit with my daughter’s neuropedia, she confirmed Maia has special needs and I still find myself unable to accept it. Maybe because that one word means she’s different. But when I see my little one..I see the same girl I held since birth. It pains me to see her struggle to connect with us..I know she’s trying, but her condition is holding her back. She hasn’t even uttered a word yet, and I’m dying for her to call me ‘mama’. She doesn’t understand what we say to her, like get her ball, or go to daddy. It is even more tough because she is an only child.
There are stories and songs we’d like her to learn. A lot. But it’s definitely a challenge for us. With big hopes and prayers, we’re holding on she’d win this. Lord, you know what’s best.
Please give us the strength that we need.
