So today, I will have to start with an introduction. You may not really know anything about me or maybe you do (or you think you do). It’s interesting to me because I think people really do believe that they know someone, but really we are the only ones who know how deep we really go. Anyway, that was a tangent to discuss a different day. I am a mother of 5 children. My son, my two daughters, my older daughter (whom I was lucky enough to acquire) and my step-son. I will tell you a little bit about them in order to create a reference point for you. My son, who has primary immunodeficiency, is a strappingly handsome, recently turned 14 year old, young man. He is not one to take on responsibilty. He is looking to have fun every day when he gets up. He is a homebody and is all about his family. He wants as many siblings as possible. (He is weird, who wants to share like that?) My step-son may not be my blood, but we share the same mind. He is my critical thinker (about everything). He will never be the one to make an emotional purchase, his brain doesn’t work that way! My oldest daughter lived a rough life before our family. I won’t get in to details, it’s not my place. However, I will tell you this about her, she is living proof that humans are resilient when they want to be. My middle daughter is the mother when I am away. She is the perfect mix of her father’s care free spirit and my tenacity and OCD. She gets crap done PEOPLE!! (mover and a shaker..she is) My youngest daughter has Williams Syndrome. Some of you are like, what the heck is that? Look it up. I will spare you my lengthy scientific explanation today. All you really need to know is that she is the baby of the family and her siblings protect her viciously (as do her mother and father)! Throughout my time on this blog you will learn more about the depth of my personality and each one of my kiddos as well. Hopefully, it shows you insight in to the human spirit and all that we are capable of. More to come>>
