lives yvonne thanks for the encouragement that tucker does not need to know he s a number has a number or that numbers determine what happens with his education and therapy he s going to be who he is

cancel kristi campbell dude what you have taught me is equally powerful huge congrats on your new adventure and thank you thank you for getting and celebrating tucker march 2 2014 12 07 am reply cancel christopher blair maywhort hi kristi yes i ve read a few of your blogs felt compelled to compliment you on this one here is some strong writing on a topic that i know must have been scary to put into words good job you however i have to laugh a little because of the topic this was written under the most unexpected part of being a grown up is did you really think you wouldn t be more perceptive today than when you we were young er silly grown up side note i was watching a bit of as good as it gets on tv today your blog reminded me of helen hunt s character in the film you know that scene where she writes jack nicholson s character a 10 page thank you note after he helps her with her son that s supposed to be a compliment by the way one of the best written parts for a female lead ever not sure why i went off on that tangent except i know how hard it is to write especially screenplays having written 2 myself anyway hang in there and for the record your son doesn t look retarded at all p s haters gonna hate that last comment but kristi and i go back a little and i think she gets it at least she did 20 years ago until her perceptions changed take care yo march 1 2014 4 13 am reply cancel elizabeth as a preschool teacher i spend my days watching kids develop skills like drawing a house or cutting on a line there are checklists and rubrics that help us talk to parents about their child s development while i see the importance of having some sort of standard i don t want parents to obsess over a number on a piece of paper i believe in educating the whole child and i am always watching for students who are compassionate patient and friendly because they skills are more important for success in life than being able to draw a house by a certain age i guide my teaching principles based on the einstein quote everyone s a genius but if you judge a fish based on its ability to climb a tree it will spend it s whole life believing that it is stupid children are the same way a great artist may not excel in math a fantastic athlete may not have the most patience in the classroom and that s okay because every single child has something wonderful to offer this world they just need an adult to believe in them and help them develop their talent march 1 2014 8 23 am reply cancel kristi campbell how much do i love you right now a fucking lot you rock my friend for getting this so much hellz to the yeah about standards meaning nothing and numbers on paper not really saying anything about the kid that they re referring to i love the quote everyone s a genius but if you judge a fish based on its ability to climb a tree it will spend it s whole life believing that it is stupid thank you for sharing that thank you for you you are beyond amazing and i have never forgotten the post you wrote for us and have never stopped being grateful for it or for this march 2 2014 12 16 am reply cancel shay i love it kristi people realize so many things when their lives don t go as planned and it can be so hard to relate that to others who simply don t get it but retarded is the word they ll insist but you put it perfectly here when you said while it may have originated in meaning delayed or apply to somebody who learns more slowly it morphed into a joke and an ugly name i think people who use words like this realize this but they don t want to make the effort to put that realization into practice hopefully if their lives turn out differently than they had originally planned they ll remember what posts like this have tried to teach them and hopefully others will be as understanding and sweet about their mistakes as you are here march 1 2014 9 18 am reply cancel kristi campbell shay i adore you retarded was indeed the word still is in some cases my own mil has told me that the retards are god s chosen and that the homos are going to hell so there s that hopefully all of our lives different than we d imagined and more enlightened and amazing than we d ever have even dreamed of march 2 2014 12 28 am reply cancel jen real life parenting kristi this is so beautiful we all have thoughts about what our children will be i know i did and i struggled a bit at first when that was not my reality as i came to terms with my thee difference i realized that i hadn t come to terms with the reality of him but of me it was my own growth that needed to occur i loved this so much so so much march 1 2014 9 41 am reply cancel kristi campbell jen you re so right that the difference lies within us and not them that while they are different it is us who becomes so and should thank you my awesome pal march 2 2014 12 30 am reply cancel cathy we grownups are so silly aren t we i remember when i was pregnant praying to god that i wouldn t have an ugly baby the rest i assumed would be ok ten fingers ten toes you know i d seen mothers doting over their ugly babies pointed head swollen eyes flat nose and always thought they knew their babies were ugly and just faked it hoping the ugly would go away when stephanie was born i remember thinking she s beautiful she s perfect that s when i realized every mother sees her baby as perfectly beautiful no matter what she looks like to the world thanks for sharing part of your soul with us 3 march 1 2014 11 27 am reply cancel kristi campbell omg i can t believe you brought up ugly babies and love you so much for doing so i too remember wondering whether people realized their babies were ugly guess we both were given lessons in that ugly no longer exists as of course we have the most beautiful amazingly gorgeous babies on the planet right i mean tucker and stephanie are really really good looking that cannot just be me or us or maybe and who cares march 2 2014 12 34 am reply

a baby with downs then after years of trying to have a baby and then losing multiple pregnancies i changed my tune once i got pregnant i decided to forgo those tests no matter what we were keeping the baby and we would love her no matter what wonderful post thanks for sharing march 2 2014 2 53 pm reply cancel kristi campbell jess thank you so much and i know what you mean i can t believe that years

pm reply cancel michelle a dish of daily life this is so beautiful kristi and actually brought me to tears it s hard to fathom how much you will love them until you feel them kick for the first time or hold them in your arms i get overwhelmed sometimes just thinking about it i cry so hard when i see something happen to a child in the news and once my kids said why are you crying you don t even know that person its hard to explain to them that you re crying for the anguish another mother or father is feeling because you can t imagine anything worse we just love so much no matter what nothing could change that march 2 2014 3 01 pm reply cancel kristi campbell michelle i can t handle hearing about anything happening to kids at all either i can t deal with it on the news on facebook or anywhere i feel the same anguish over it and yeah i suppose it s impossible to know how much we ll love our kids before actually becoming parents thanks much march 2 2014 5 39 pm reply cancel angela mckeown momopolize oh my gosh kristi this post is amazing is this what you are reading at ltym i m guessing it s not but i can visualize you on stage saying every word of this with so much emotion you

right back friend march 2 2014 11 21 pm reply cancel louise i love how you wrote this the progression from before having a child and the expectations of perfect life to having tucker and life adapting and loving him fiercely and so naturally wanting everything for him while obviously no life is every perfect i know that yours comes with more 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
