If there are many kids, all with different problems and all clamoring for attention, a smart kid who knows how to work people can either turn on the charm or fade into the woodwork.Miz Kizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650747741395559803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615738387814644598.post-66821437751998813452011-02-15T00:55:44.604-05:002011-02-15T00:55:44.604-05:00I think of the mix between my younger, smart, boys...I think of the mix between my younger, smart, boys and my older "developmentally delayed" daughter. If she didn't have the hormones of a teenager, I think they would still be playing very well together. Hope will surpass GB, yes, in time. Before then, GB may possibly be pulled up as she witnesses Hope's gains. Hope, being younger, will take a while before she is "beyond" playing at GB's level. And maybe she will even become an astute and capable teacher for GB after many years. <br />As for the current needs being in direct opposition, I haven't got any answers other than perhaps you should buy pointe shoes to help you stay on your toes all the time. : )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615738387814644598.post-30589560157213304172011-02-13T12:40:03.571-05:002011-02-13T12:40:03.571-05:00Hey!

I DO love Texas! :-)<br /><br />I suspect God wanted Hope in your house because he knew that, even though it will be difficult to strike the balance necessary to meet the needs of both sisters, YOU and dh can and will do it. Who is more qualified? Who loves more? or better?<br /><br />It's you, girl. And you can do it!Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18124894626273484839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615738387814644598.post-81278326527655319912011-02-13T12:20:34.126-05:002011-02-13T12:20:34.126-05:00My son also came to me with every diagnosis in the...My son also came to me with every diagnosis in the book except RAD- and that and PTSD are the only ones we are really left with at this point. He is my only child and for that I am very grateful- good luck to you on your journey, it sounds to me like you are doing a great job. :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05912402504550789439noreply@blogger.com
