Have you ever had a week when you wonder how you’re going to fit everything into the week? That’s us. Every week. Some weeks better than others, but I digress.
First our jobs as police officers comes with its own demands. Unpredictable schedules, odd days off and working late just come with the job.
Then we have Anna’s therapies. Every week she has preschool Monday through Thursday from 11 to 2, plus she has physical therapy, pool therapy, music therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. Some people shake their heads when they hear about her schedule, but do you know what? It really wouldn’t be much different if she was a typical kid. Instead of pool therapy she would have swim lessons, and music therapy might be a day at Gymboree instead. So, it’s all relative.
Doctor’s appointments. No explanation needed there.
Adoption paperwork and planning is kicking into high gear, and I’ll address that more in depth soon. Speaking of adoption, Julia might have issues of her own and we’ll meet those challenges head-on.
So, we’ve been extremely busy lately and sometimes I wish for a few days when I don’t have to do ANYTHING. But do you know what? Last week Anna was able to stand alone in the pool for two minutes at a time, several times, during pool therapy. It’s all worth it.
So when you're so busy that you want to scream, I hope you find your gem amid all the madness.
