Chrissy put into words what I’ve had a hard time digesting. And almost four months post diagnosis I have learned to trust my gut above all else.
Reese learned ballet, sort of. Ryan mastered his use of sign language, furthering his functional language. And Lola rocked standing and dancing, but still can’t fall.
I booked myself a makeup lesson in hopes of looking half as stunning Clare Durkin. Is she even human?
Christmas shopping commenced. Thankfully we implemented a new policy — 1 thing to wear, 1 thing to read, 1 thing to play with — after last Christmas turned into a mini-Hannukah (8 days of gifts).
And we spent the month really trying to connect as a family, including participating in a holiday photo shoot for a local magazine. Nothing says family-time more than squatting someone else’s house while pretending it is a holiday. I can’t believe the year is almost over. (Thank god!)
