My last two posts have been bleak, so I thought I
should give a positive update about Madelle.
The funny thing with a positive update is there really isn't much to
say.
This week Madelle has done really well. We haven't had any breakdowns. She worked hard at going to school. Wednesday she was determined to make it every
day. We were excited when she got on the
bus on Wednesday. The same behavior
happened on Thursday. In the evening,
she was excited for her success, but I could tell she had a long day. When I woke her up on Friday, she came out
exhausted. I let her stay home. Within minutes, she fell asleep on the chaise
lounge. An hour later, Leo and I went
for a walk. She was still sleeping there
when we came home. Since Leo pounced on
her, she returned to her bed and sleep until noon. Today she has been a little grumpy, but then
so have I.
A quiet week is what we all needed. We decorated the tree last night and watched
"The Christmas Story." In the
days to come, the storms will inevitably come our way. Now, we are enjoying the smooth sailing
weather of the emotions that flow through our home. Blessings to you. And I would like to say a special thank you
to all of you who are praying for us and for the beautiful comments and to
reaching out to me in my dark moments. I
love you all.
