Therapy Using the ChildRite Seat

Here's James, getting used to sitting upright by himself. With the help of the ChildRite Seat, here's praying that his neck and trunk muscles would soon be strong enough to support independent sitting. 






Will be uploading other pics in the future to record James' progress. (Notice that he has a thing with camera flash these days thus the closed eyes in every photo :p) 


Thanks so much again Aunt Jenny and Auntie Glad for sending this wonderful chair to us! :)

I Am The Child

I am the child who cannot talk. You often pity me, I see it in your eyes. You wonder how much I am aware of — I see that as well. I am aware of much — whether you are happy or sad or fearful, patient or impatient, full of love and desire, or if you are just doing your duty by me. I marvel at your frustration, knowing mine to be far greater, for I cannot express myself or my needs as you do. You cannot conceive my isolation, so complete it is at times. I do not gift you with clever conversation, cute remarks to be laughed over and repeated. I do not give you answers to your everyday questions, responses over my well-being, sharing my needs, or comments about the world about me. I do not give you rewards as defined by the world’s standards — great strides in development that you can credit yourself; I do not give you understanding as you know it.

Wonderful Blue Roses

I received this as a forwarded email earlier today. It's so good not to share. I'm sure not only families with Blue Roses like ours could appreciate this but also the Dandelions out there who only need a reminder to, every now and then, stop and smell the roses, especially the rare and very special ones :) == BLUE ROSES Why do I always have to be the one that starts to do laundry and there's no detergent?  Well, I guess it was time for me to do my store run, which included light bulbs, paper towels, trash bags and Clorox. So off I go. I scurried around the store, gathered up my goodies, and headed for the checkout counter only to be blocked in the narrow aisle by a young man that appeared to be about sixteen-years-old. I wasn't in a hurry, so I patiently waited for the boy to realize that I was there. This was when he waved his hands excitedly in the air and declared in a loud voice, "Mommy, I'm over here." photo borrowed from rosepi...

Mothers of Disabled Children

The piece below was written by Erma Bombeck on May 11, 1980, almost three decades ago. It has remained a powerful encouragement to many mothers whose kids have special needs. Happy Mothers' Day to all you wonderful moms out there, especially my kindred souls who were also chosen to take care of special angels in this world! === Most women became mothers by accident, some by choice, a few by social pressures and a couple by habit. This year, nearly 100,000 women will become mothers of handicapped children. Did you ever wonder how mothers of handicapped children are chosen? Somehow I visualize God hovering over Earth. As he observes, he instructs his angels to make notes. "Armstrong, Beth; son; patron saint, Matthew. Forrest, Marjorie; daughter; patron saint, Cecilia. Finally he passes a name to an angel and smiles, "Give her a handicapped child." photo borrowed from polyvore.com The angel is curious. "Why this one, God? She...
