Never One to Throw A Crutch


I believe the greatest gift I've given my girls is I never threw them a crutch. They are who they are, who God made them. Flaws and all. Sure, I could have gotten them the ever popular 504 plan to aid them in school with longer testing time, but I didn't. I never even mentioned the flaws to school till a teacher noticed or medical intervention creeped into their lives. No crutches. Learn to adapt. Life will not always be able to make exceptions for you, so embrace who you and flourish--that's what I taught my two girls. They did what they wanted and always succeeded.

So here we go again with our M. This time it's more difficult for me because I'm not in her presence to reassure her she is perfect in our eyes, in the eyes of God. To just give a confronting hug to ease her anxiety. God made her eyes for tweaking so she could go into the world and show--see there world, nothing can stop me.  All M's struggle will, or have, made her a more compassionate person. She knows how to jump the hurdles of life. She will take that trait into her one day classroom, where heartfelt understanding is a key tool. 

My M is resting.  I am right by her side, and I'm not going anywhere.
