Turning the Page

So this is getting real. Younger graduates from my alma mater on Friday.

Mr. Spiky Cognitive Profile

Mr. ADHD

Mr. Space Cookie

My slow processor. The one they couldn’t say for certain if he had TBI at birth or not. 

The one they said probably wouldn’t be able to do academic work…..

….is graduating with his same-age peers with a higher GPA than I had.

(I have no excuse)

Of course, this means nothing if he isn’t able to get a job because he can’t pass the interview process. Or….a million other things. The grief of the things that may never happen for my guys is real.

But I will not let grief take away the joy of the things that somehow do happen.

Keep looking for the bluebirds, rainbows, and silver linings.
