What Matters The Most?
Sometimes, you have to just stop and ask yourself, “Why am I here?” “What am I doing?” “What matters most to me?”.
In the hustle and bustle of our big universe we tend to sometimes overlook the reason we are where we are in the first place.
What brought you here to my blog?
Do you have a child with a developmental delay? Does your child have Down syndrome? Maybe mosaic Down syndrome? Do you personally have a developmental delay? Or like my good friend Casey says “An Ability”?
What are you doing?
Are you busy moving about from one moment to the next, tirelessly advocating for those who need your help?Are you getting overwhelmed with all the work you do and sometimes feel that no matter what you do, it just isn’t enough? Do you wish that you could just throw in the towel and say, “Let someone else do it!”?
Or maybe you are just starting out and you are confused and wondering what all this means and what the future holds for your child.
What matters to you most?
No matter what brought you here today to my blog, you are here for a reason! Something has brought you here to this place right now. And yes, the big things do matter! They matter a lot! But it is the little things that matter the most. It is the little things that bring tears of joy to our eyes! It is the little things that we all work so hard to accomplish.
In America, decades ago, the first astronaut walked on the moon. At that moment, he said, “One small step for man. One giant leap for mankind” Those small steps are what matter the most. Those first steps that lead us into independence are what brings a smile upon our faces and tremendous joy to our hearts.
Today, 22 month old Gideon, made that small step towards independence!
This is why we are here folks! To share those very special moments that matter the most!
Way to Go Gideon! I can’t wait to see what you’ll do next!
