From Legos and Army Men Are Calling:
Today my prayer is for all mothers. We’re all in this together. We all love our children, even if we parent them imperfectly sometimes. The schedule doesn’t matter; we must judge our progress by the year, and not by the day, the week, or even the month. If you have any kind of a special needs child, then sometimes a day without a major incident (however you define that) is a victory, even if no schooling to speak of was accomplished. Love your children, and trust that God gifted you with the ones who are right for you. He doesn’t make mistakes.
