I am very proud that this blog is up and in existence. However, anyone who has logged in to view it have probably been underwhelmed in that I haven't written very much. I am proud to be able to say that we are making it! I had a period where I felt inadequate regarding being super-parent to these precious girls. So, I've been making strong effort to learn how to cook things which the girls like to eat; I was getting really good with laundry, but must admit my mother's help has made me get compacent since she has been ironing and making all the girl's clothes look good and selections for Abbey to wear to school; Victoria is old enough to select her own outfits and she has done so good that I find myself wishing I could do more for Victoria. In time I will figure it out. We always enjoy having Starla and Bobby and the cousins come; it helps give this house extra life and the controlled chaos is something I now miss and can see extra happiness with Victoria when they are here. Abbey was taken to a basketball game for the middle school and had a great time! She didn't let the noise bother her and she followed the action of the game as they went back and forth on the court! Definitely more adventures to come for Abbey, who likes being greeted friendly by classmates who now days understand Autism and realize Abbey is very smart and is quite aware of how these classmates give her support. Approval by her peers is something very positive and motivating for Abbey, and she returned from that game in a very good mood. So, with the help of others, I am returning to the land of the living because my daughters are both doing well in the face of this sad time. Their happiness spreads to me, and has helped drag me out of those deep despair moments I felt for months after losing my very best friend.
So, we will keep on...keeping on, and for this I am extremely thankful. PM
