What my disabled son taught me about disability

"In our terror surrounding Henry's diagnosis, we forgot that our child was simply that: a child. My God, I thought. What had we been expecting – a monster?" So touching and so much that I can relate to here.

“Motherhood is about raising and celebrating the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that he is exactly the person he is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, he just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be.”

― Joan Ryan, The Water Giver: The Story of a Mother, a Son, and Their Second Chance

Nothing would make me happier than to give this lady a big hug & to tell her about her grandson on the way. Can't believe she's been gone for two years. I still miss her everyday. (Taken with Instagram)

June is here and this tender ditty has been stuck in my head all day. ♥ ♥ ♥

And while it takes courage to achieve greatness, it takes more courage to find fulfillment in being ordinary. For the joys that last have little relationship to achievement, to standing one step higher on the victory platform. What is the adventure in being ordinary? It is daring to love just for the pleasure of giving it away. It is venturing to give new life and to nurture it to maturity. It is working hard for the pure joy of being tired at the end of the day. It is caring and sharing and giving and loving…

New release from First Aid Kit. Anything that these girls do is pretty much gold in my book. 

"The song is a tribute to some of our favorite country musicians - Emmylou Harris, Gram Parsons, June Carter and Johnny Cash. It's about the power of singing together with someone you love."
