I never asked to be born this way. I never had a choice. I didnt come with a guide book. I ask for a lot but I give a lot too. Do you notice it? When im in pain I cant tell you. I fuss, get super cranky, and make your day rough. What else can I do? I see you stressed. I see your tears. That makes me cranky too. Cause I love you and dont want you suffering even for a second.

If I have a seizure all I can do is endure it. Hope it stops. If I have a toothache you wont know cause my self abusive, ADHD, oppositional defiant behavior may say...im acting out simply because its...Monday. Id like to go out and skip about, play with others, or even just have the freedom to ask you...how are you mom?

There is so much I want to say. Id start by telling you thank you mom for caring for me. Thank you for not starving me, abusing me, throwing me into a trash dumpster, or aborting me. Cause despite being severely handicapped I like life. Because of you life is easier to endure.

****Cafemom....Look at your child through their perspective. See you the way they do. Love yourself because they do. Hug them more because mabye they want another hug and cant ask for one. Tell them you love them because mabye their thinking it but arient able to say it yet. Their lives are limited for a while but know the day will come when ours will be again too. They may have to feed us, tell us they love us when we cant speak anymore, change our diapers, even when times are tough and stressful.******

                           Look at life through a Limited world.

I sit and study my children. I try and understand what they need and want. I remember they are limited. I love my children for so many reasons. What are yours?
