Feeling better!

Today I find myself handling life a little bit better than when I last posted. (whew) So, no warning is needed this time ;D

Within the last two weeks we have been adjusting to Jensyn's new diagnosis and we came to the point of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion. I have found that creating this family blog is wonderfully cathartic. Somehow, writing it all down and actually sharing with others makes it easier to digest.... maybe that doesn't make much sense, but really - it doesn't have to. I invite you to continue this journey with me if you are interested. I may stumble my way through most of this, but in the end, prayerfully, both you and I will have a clearer view of life within these walls.

Let me start by explaining that NO ONE outside of this house has ever really observed any of the things that have led to our children being diagnosed. Apparently they work really hard to maintain the "expected normalcy of life" out in the world, so much so that it creates a kind of bottled up frenetic energy that releases in the safety of our home. I always wondered why everybody else seemed to get "the best" of our kids and we got what was left. Yes, I KNOW that it is like this in so many homes and it really can be quite a normal thing. But it just never really felt "normal" for us... everything was just MORE...not sure how to explain it, but just more.
