I love it!<br />Anyway, I feel the same way when I take my son out sometimes. He's big for his age and is just now really beginning to speak and engage with people. He has a medical ID bracelt and sometimes people ask what is wrong with him. Sometimes I explain but most often, I don't. You are right- they don't GET to know!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17345135760495892431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600278351249979209.post-49140647147741404112010-04-26T20:30:13.594-07:002010-04-26T20:30:13.594-07:00I love this story.

It's a blessing and a curse at the same time....I don't have to explain my child...Y'all do....I'm so sorry for that.....<br /><br />CyndiColbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05100340319951092104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600278351249979209.post-18698221415805652332010-04-15T07:04:12.928-07:002010-04-15T07:04:12.928-07:00My Haylee is exactly like Bristel.

She just waits for someone to ask something about Kym and off she goes so I know your aversion to stranger questions! <br /><br />But, you are definitely a better woman than I D, cuz honestly, I would have bugged on the COG!Adestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08255048845212923176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600278351249979209.post-14226726906578892312010-04-14T20:02:15.102-07:002010-04-14T20:02:15.102-07:00You made me cry again. I'm glad you didn'...You made me cry again. I'm glad you didn't tell COG. Not just because it is none of her business but also because if Trevy's receptive language is as good as Emma's then he does not need to hear people talking about what he cannot do. I keep my answers to "she's three" When they ask her questions, I smile and let them give up and label her shy. I say "oh no, she's not shy at all - she just doesn't want to talk to you today. Maybe next time" All with a big smile. I'm glad he is enjoying pick up as much as you are.Sineadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600278351249979209.post-54149303304916583122010-04-14T09:16:25.425-07:002010-04-14T09:16:25.425-07:00"Old Hag"...such a nice way of putting i..."Old Hag"...such a nice way of putting it ;)<br /><br />I hate the evil stares and snide comments as if I am a horrible mother. Especially when we go out to eat and other moms (with their perfectly behaved toddler sitting in a highchair) look at us with our out of control kids and our 4 1/2 year old still sitting in a high chair throwing a tantrum.<br /><br />And nothing is better than the big squeezes you get when picking up your child from school. It makes everything else melt away. If only for a moment.Sophie's Story by Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00415731740298071423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600278351249979209.post-78066191360959914222010-04-14T08:20:30.050-07:002010-04-14T08:20:30.050-07:00i like how you say "she didn't deserve to...i like how you say "she didn't deserve to know how special he is." its really true. i mean, our kids are miracle babies and we should share their stories with people that are special to them and us. not usually worth telling a stranger that doesn't get it, can't get it, and doesn't care enough. <br /><br />maybe that's selfish. i dunno...i'm not really good at sharing my princess :)<br /><br />it is hard seeing and knowing how our little ones can't just be kids, but they have their therapies and restrictions and a lot of work to do for being so little. realizing that has helped me loosen up a bit more and just have fun and let go of some things...i need and want her to have fun and just be a kid.<br /><br />always love your posts. usually right on with what i think and feel.<br /><br />sending hugs :)<br />jodyMJStumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05506100079795141155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600278351249979209.post-6131387191775484992010-04-13T19:49:13.667-07:002010-04-13T19:49:13.667-07:00Oh, how I wish I could take a page out of your boo...Oh, how I wish I could take a page out of your book and just be quiet.
