A couple of weeks ago, we finally got in to see a child psychologist. She prescribed Zoloft for Sawyer, and it is working wonderfully for him!

To The Parents Next To Us At Sesame Street Live
To the parents sitting next to us at Sesame Street Live last night… I hope you will talk to your older girls about why it was rude for them to keep staring and shooting snide looks at my son all night.
Twelve
The last 12 years have taught me so much about love, family, and what it means to be a mother. Yes, the last year or so has been hard, but it could never outweigh all the laughter and love this boy has brought into our lives. Thank you, Lord, for choosing us to be Sawyer’s family.
God Doesn’t Make Mistakes
Sawyer often tells me he feels like a failure, or that he feels like he’s stupid. He has told me multiple times now that he doesn’t know why he’s even alive. I tell him “God doesn’t make mistakes, and He made you because He thought the world needed one of you.” What I don’t tell Sawyer is that I feel like a failure because I can’t just magically make him feel better.
Thriving
All three of the kids are really thriving this year. I sit back and think about them sometimes, and how each one of my kids is so different but so alike, too, and I feel so proud of them for everything they are and all that they do in their daily lives.
Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
With an unexpected move, a family vacation, and Christmas, our little family has had quite the chaotic month!!
Death, Loss, and Traditions
Sawyer has been talking a lot about his Mamaw and Papaw lately.
