challenge than you could have anticipated and looking back it s so easy to make absolute decisions when you aren t actually faced with them so don t judge your former self too harshly we have friends who over the past few months have had their son a bit over a year now run through a myriad of tests to determine if there is a developmental delay they haven t figured out what it is yet and i can t imagine the stress sometimes when i read your blog and this post is a great example i think it will help me when i next see them so i ll be able to listen well and possibly offer something like your blog to the conversation march 3 2014 12 13 am reply cancel kristi campbell aw thanks so much louise i love love love that you share it with your friends please let them know that if they want to talk i d be happy to speak on the phone as well sometimes it helps just to talk to somebody who s been through it i ve spoken to a few moms and even met a couple in person which is awesome thanks for reminding me to not pass too much judgement on my former self it s hard sometimes though ya know march 3 2014 7 27 pm reply cancel julie chenell deneen the version of life we have in our heads vs the one we actually have i remember thinking wait a second i didn t think i would be that mom with the baby in the hospital hooked up to a million tubes i didn t think i d be the mom that suffered post partum depression you have found a road less traveled one that makes you full of empathy because you have learned what it is to see the gem inside someone who doesn t fit the mold and model of what should be he s absolutely adorable march 3 2014 12 43 am reply cancel amber day hicks this post is wonderful your baby boy is phenomenal screw it i don t crecwhat they say you are right a momma and the fierce love is so much more powerful than any measley diagnosis love this xo a march 3 2014 1 42 pm reply cancel kristi campbell thanks so much amber and i will agree with you that tucker is phenomenal awesome word by the way thanks for getting it xoxo right back at ya march 3 2014 7 28 pm reply cancel lena burkut i love this story it is just so amazing how our views change normal to me 10 years ago is so not whatit is now march 3 2014 6 26 pm reply cancel kathy radigan wow what a wonderful post i related to this on so many levels i too thought a child that had a learning difference would be the worst thing that happened to me but primarily because i had a learning difference and it was awful to feel defined by a number i think one of the biggest surprises of parenting is that my kids have taught me so much about accepting myself as much as accepting them and to also ignore tests that ry to define the non definable thank you for sharing your story with so much grace and candor love you xo march 3 2014 8 23 pm reply cancel emmy love this post love your honesty and love your perspective it is so amazing how much life can teach us and help us grow as a person and that is an amazing beautiful thing march 4 2014 11 43 am reply cancel kristi campbell thank you so much and yes life does teach us so much and too much of it is beautiful to ignore march 4 2014 11 11 pm reply cancel a morning grouch i m sitting in a coffee shop trying not to look like a psycho emotional disaster so i m holding back tears as i read this i feel a huge connection with this the fear of the unknown of a not perfect child and then once you are pregnant not even officially a mother yet the whole world changes the whole world changes as a special ed teacher who is forced to talk in numbers and benchmarks sometimes this also strikes a nerve know that so many of us feel the same way you do about your lovely child march 4 2014 2 42 pm reply cancel kristi campbell sorry about the coffee shop thing but thank you so much for feeling such a connection to this the whole world does really change when we get pregnant see them on an ultrasound and then hold them name them stay up with them worry for them and finally somewhere in there realize who they actually are aside from our dream of them thank you march 4 2014 11 42 pm reply cancel jen lauren schneider kehl this post is so important any parent of a developmentally delayed child should read it actually everyone should read it people are not numbers and as i always say in my blog they are also not their diagnosis each one of our kids is so perfectly unique it s like i tell isaiah his tic doesn t make him weird it makes him special he is more special than anyone else because he has a cool tic that no one else has so tucker is cool too so he is the coolest doesn t cut the way silly teachers want him to kid in the world march 6 2014 11 04 pm reply cancel out one ear linda atwell i ve thought and said some of the same things as you in my youth and lindsey had the same or very close to the same apgar scores we thought things were perfect until much later too we are on a challenging unknown path whether we like it or not you ve embraced it better than me i think i ignored the doctors warnings for several years i just couldn t wrap my head around the diagnosis anyway as always another beautiful post and i appreciate the honest way you write it is so refreshing p s you are right this would have been perfect for spread the word to end the r word day but it was also perfect for the day you posted it march 13 2014 1 07 pm reply cancel tina mcgrevy great post oh i hate to think of the things i used to say it would be interesting to interview the pre mom me i ve changed so much i actually forget my
