Our Gift From God

Living with a child who has a disability can involve sorrow, uncertainty, frustration, and continual energy drain. Sometimes as a Parent I grieve the transitions, such as academics, playing sports, or other milestones that put my child further out of sync with her classmates. However I believe God gave this beautiful child to me so that I could become a better person. I've learned more from Katy than I could ever teach her. With the love and acceptance I have for Katy comes a clearer understanding of all of God’s children and their importance. I have learned to rely on God for help more than I ever did before Katy came into our lives. As Katy has become more aware of her limitations I find myself determined to help her be more confident and to have faith in herself. I wouldn’t know where to begin with out God’s unending love and guidance in this daily journey with my gift from God.
