I know you who have children with SPD can relate to it totally consuming your life. My daughter seems to go through cycles. She has a really difficult time for a while, and then does really well for a while. Right now she’s doing really well. Sometimes when she is doing really well, I don’t even recognize it because I’m still in the “fog”. Today I just realized that I really need to pay attention to these down times. I need to cherish being out of the fog. Of course there are still little things we deal with every day no matter what…like finding food for her to eat or calming her down after she gets dressed. But for the most part, life is easier. I need to remember to be present in those times. I need to remind myself that right now, in this very moment, I can breath, I can relax.
