I too am a mother of a son with autism (who is almost 9) and minimally verbal, and a 4 yr old daughter. I also have a daughter who is almost 11. So much of what you write about could have been lifted straight from our life, yet none as much as how you feel about Olivia. My 4yr old daughter is almost my "one thing." Today she asked me if I prayed to God for her. I could only say yes, though she has answered prayers I could not even articulate. I am not sure she will ever know how much she means to me, how grateful I am that she is in my life. As for me, not a day goes by that I don't thank God for her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6347301636377693147.post-71102019908519072292010-06-03T06:28:57.577-05:002010-06-03T06:28:57.577-05:00Tis 5:00 AM and I am fighting back one of those he...Tis 5:00 AM and I am fighting back one of those heart renching sobs you know so well. The little girl is also one of the things that keep me going-I understand your recent blog so very well. The little boy-so brave in his own way also is a main inspiratation for me. How can the recipents of his love and faith- you me, and margaret not be honnored. He makes the people who know him, who understand his pure heart, who have compassion and love-much better people. There are two people in my life, other than Daniel and Olivia, who play the role for me that Olivia does for you. You know who they are. You and you Mom deserve so very much more happiness than live has dished out. I still believe that you will find the rewards you so richly deserve. I wish that my love for your mother had been enough to sustain her. May God, if she exists,bless the four most wonderful people in my life. I love you all so very much,. Daddadnoreply@blogger.com
