After spending most of day walking in my daughter's shoes, I have renewed respect for all my daughter goes through. I mean, I know she's here for Ethan, day in and day out, but it's one thing to know it and another to experience it first hand.
Today I got to walk in her shoes because I wanted to 'learn the ropes' as it were. That I could be more prepared and able to help her care for Ethan. Once I earn my stripes, I might be able to convince her to take some much needed respite and care for herself.
Today's adventures of Grandma and Ethan, including Grandma driving Ratatouille to pick Ethan up from school, learning to work the lift and tie downs. Then off to speech therapy, where Ethan was in a pretty silly mood, but still worked hard. It was a long and tiring day for Ethan, but he was such a good sport about everything.
After speech therapy, it was time to go home and get bathed, and ready to relax for the night.
So here we are on a Friday night chillin' together watching "The Muppets Take Manhattan" hearing his spontaneous laughter at the antics of Kermit and Miss Piggy really warm my heart.
It may have been a long day, and I may be tired, but I can't think of any place else I'd rather be than with Ethan, enjoying Friday movie night.
