After my rant yesterday.... I feel better today. Sometimes you need to just get it off your chest. You know what makes me feel the best. Part is the fact that I won't be lonely in the loony bin, part is knowing that you have ALL had days like this. I find comfort in knowing I'm not all by myself in my frustration. I appreciate all the comments and uplifting words, and "I know how you feel"'s. It does pass, it does get better, I love my job. I DO find joy in this journey. Every last aspect of it. From a daughter with a disability, to a husband with a stressful job and busy calling. From an 8 year old who doesn't like anything but candy, to a 6 year old who hasn't said more than 2 nice things to me in days. It's all part of what makes my life mine, and makes me, well, me. From the daughter that colors on herself when she runs across a pen, and no paper to go with it. (although it is getting better, she can now ask for a paper, and I can understand her) to a 1 year old who's new favorite thing.... the tupperware and sippy cup cupboard.I ran into a friend yesterday, and her house looked like mine, and she looked as frazzled as I feel most times. I wish I could have done something for her, all I could offer was, "I know how you feel". There really is no better comfort than knowing and seeing, you are not alone. That's where I find joy in this. The friendships, the commonalities, the understanding, I get from those around me. Thank you.
