Your resolve. But you are human. I'm so thankful for you. Thankful that you are strong enough to share. Thankful that it helps me not feel alone. Thankful that it reminds me not to put unrealistic expectations on myself. But I am most thankful for the reminder of how it all, IT ALL, has purpose and somehow makes us stronger, who we are. Hang in there, Meri, you will "bounce." Don't be hard on yourself. And know, as green as I may be, I am always here and so is an army of others who so love, appreciate and want to be there for you as you have been so many times for us.Amy Ledererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02234638502645023830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-70435294729168532472011-08-23T06:36:11.868-07:002011-08-23T06:36:11.868-07:00Aw Meri, no need...I was struck by the back to ...Aw Meri, no need...I was struck by the back to 'school apls' - it reminded me of apples.

And soccer camp was so difficult for me with everybody asking a million questions about Isaac's d, I wanted to scream, but held it together. I think it's hitting me now though. <br />So...thank you for this post, I really truly needed it!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03210820513382353417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-22673028702759303302011-08-22T14:59:41.481-07:002011-08-22T14:59:41.481-07:00Thank you for your wonderful blogs that leave my h...Thank you for your wonderful blogs that leave my head bobbing up and down in agreement, as I read the same things I feel.
