meeting Elmo + friends w/ cerebral palsy! ❤️
Every single morning our 2 year old's morning routine includes watching Elmo. More specifically, her favorite little segment with Cookie Monster and Gonger in their foodie truck. She knows every character's names. She has her favorite episodes memorized down to the hand movements. We didn't have to think twice when it came to deciding how we could spend her special day for her 2nd birthday! ✨

what having a child with a disability has taught me 🌱
It has been the most beautiful 8 years of my life being Abby's mom. Sometimes thinking about those 8 years feels like it has been a whole lifetime.

the mom i've always wanted to be
Hey Mom. I never told you this before, but ... all that I am is because of all that you were not. I do not tell this story very often - mainly because I spent 16 years of my life trying to escape the reality I was born into. At the peak of my 16th year, I stood in front of a judge and pleaded to have myself finally set free. At 16 years old, I was legally pronounced as emancipated. There were many reasons why this was necessary for my mental, emotional, and physical health. The biggest take away that I received from those 16 years of knowing you, was each and every thing I would never put my own family through.
