Hehe... I fear I am becoming infamous for my scrapping.
Nice to meet you, Sharon! I agree with Sila... it always makes me feel warm inside when I see parents of SPD children fighting to help their children get what they need. So many cases of SPD are like the invisible disability, it would be easier (and is easier for many people!) to blame the kid and not do anything to help. Makes me feel so good to know that there are people who care as much as you obviously do. And as far as blaming yourself for things that happened in the past, I have to recommend that you give yourself some slack. You did the best you could with what you knew *at that time*, and that is the best you could have done. It is tempting to give in to guilt for not being able to do, but too often, that guilt can keep us from moving forward fully and loving and accepting what we have now. And it sounds like what you have now is a funny, smart little boy who loves his mom very much and is moving toward a brighter future. And that is a wonderful thing.
I look forward to hearing more about your scrapping, of course! Are you digital, traditional, or hybrid? I'm guessing you love to scrap your loved ones. I look forward to seeing any projects you have, if you don't mind sharing.
Alright, I'll leave you alone now. Looking forward to getting to know you better!
