KC, keep smiling baby. I know it's hard, but when you can smile, I'll be here to smile back. I love every second of it. You are beautiful inside and out.
All truth goes through three stages. First it is ridiculed. Then it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident . Facts are stubborn, and refusal to accept them does not avoid their inexorable effects-the tragic consequences are now upon us - Hellen Keller. The time has come for everyone to step up and be an advocate for our children. It is no longer enough to simply ask questions. We need to demand answers.

It only takes two words...
to melt my already soft heart. After another gut wrenching evening of KC crying, I opened the yogurt he requested. I stuck the spoon in and he freaked. I realized he wanted to feed himself. I handed him the spoon, and he started shoveling it in. The sobs subsided. I looked at him and smiled. I didn't expect him to respond at all, but his eyes met mine and he smiled back. With barely more than a whisper I heard him say, Hi Mama. Tears filled my eyes. I got a glimpse of my son at that moment. He's in there, he just needs me to find him.

Isn't it amazing that something so little is really so HUGE and heart-thumping and affects us so deeply.
Hold that "Hi Mama" close...your lovely little man.
