I gave my computer a couple days of rest and just got on and read all of your sweet comments...Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts with me. I think I was just having an overwhelming day...much better now...I tend to WORRY about a lot and hold it in and then it just builds...I know my sweet baby is doing great and he WILL reach all the milestones he needs to. I just want him to be the happiest he can be...and I can happily say that he IS the happiest little baby I have ever known. (thanks Kenzee for reminding me of this). All of you mean so much to me, most I have never met in person...but knowing that we are all in this for the long road and in it together! Becky---there truly isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank our Heavenly Father for blessing me with Brayden...you are so right...he knows each and every one of us and has to tests us knowing we are all mothers and fathers trying to do our best to protect his precious children...All of our children are special spirits...but I know any child with special needs are TRULY SPECIAL, SPECIAL spirits...:)
We are having our photo session tomorrow with Pam from the Littlest Heroes Project...I am so excited to have this done. We will be going out to Kearney Park and getting some family shots as well as just Brayden by himself...if you haven't checked out this website...make sure you do...www.littlestheroesproject.com...
Well, I am exhausted...my husband put in a new closet organizer in our master bedroom and it has taken me all weekend to go through clothes, shoes, purses, etc. etc. etc....8 garbage bags later...I am done and ready for bed...I really should of taken pictures before and after but I was TOO embarrassed of the before! Thanks to my husband for doing this! It looks so nice!

Hi Darlena,
I'm sorry I didn't comment on your previous post. I read it, but needed some time for it to soak in so I could collect my thoughts about what to say.
The reason I needed to collect my thoughts was because I was feeling like wow, look at where Brayden is and she's worried. Lily is no where near where Brayden was at 10 months. I've decided...who cares...Brayden is Brayden and Lily is Lily. They'll get there in their time. I often have to remind myself that the first 4 months of Lily's life her little heart wasn't working properly and she's behind partly because of that.
Now, I'm not saying you can't have your thoughts...go right ahead...that's what we moms do!!! You are a terrific mom who is doing everything she can for her little guy. Brayden is soooooo blessed to have been born into such a loving family.
Darlena -
I'm so happy your day is brighter and that everything is going good for you now! I am so excited for you and your new organized closet!! FUN! I know, I am dumb, but organizing is one of my favorite things! :) Give Brayden a squeeze for us!
P.S. smile BIG tomorrow! :) I can't wait to see the pictures!!
Oh gosh Darlena...I just read your comment on my blog. This is the only thing I hate about not talking in person. Things don't sound the way you mean them to when you write them in a comment.
Under NO circumstances did I think you were being insensitive and I'm SOOOOO sorry if that's what my comment implied. Not at all what I meant.
I think that it helps me in accepting everything because I don't have anything to compare Lily to...meaning older siblings. I'm a first-time-mom and don't know any better.
Again...sorry...you go right ahead and vent your feelings...I didn't mean to make you think you couldn't speak your mind!!!!!!!
Ooooo...nothing better than purging to make you feel better ;)
Can't wait to see the new photos of Brayden - he is such a cutie! And big hugs to you - please remember to be patient with yourself.
-Libby
