So I keep working today & I look forward to Tomorrow
Advocating for the right services.
Fighting for the right IEP.
Waiting for the right diagnosis.
Asking for the right visitation schedule.
Searching for the right interventions.
Trying for the right behavioral plan.
Hoping for the right meds.
Praying for the right court order.
Working for the right thing—all the right things—for my kids.
And reminded again & again that in this fallen world… There is no unbroken system.
There is no flawless plan.
There is no perfect school.
There is no complete healing.
In the fighting & waiting & asking & searching & trying & hoping & praying & working, I am faithfully & fiercely mothering my kids.
And when my mothering inevitably falls short, I am forced to remember (*invited* to remember) that there will be a day when all things WILL be made right. The imperfect will be perfected, the broken will be made whole. And all of my fighting & praying & hoping will finally be realized.
So I keep working today & I look forward to Tomorrow.
