Self Awareness

Patrick, through much discussion and soul searching, has found out at the tender age of 7 that he is "different". The school and I have been collaborating and have really been stressing to him that everyone is different is some way. He's been a bit down because he's been told by other children that he's "worse" or "making things worse". I think we've helped him see that different isn't worse.

It's an ongoing thing, of course. And really has been the reason why I havn't been bloggy at all. But I have a new found need to blog. So my goal is to try and get something, anything, down in writing 6 days out of seven...even if it's gibberish. Please bear with me.
