I feel like writing...

...but have no idea where to start. Today has been an incredibly difficult day and yet I can't pinpoint why. Today there was a crushing weight on my shoulders. It was like an iron blanket that refused to be lifted. I could taste the stress and it was choking me. I was lost in my own anxiety about things I simply can't control.

And then Peter fell asleep on me. Snuggled up against me as close as he could. Slowly the blanket slipped off. I could breathe again. As my child snuggled against me suddenly everything weighing me down didn't mean a whole hell of a lot. I was reminded why I'm in this battle to start with.

On a totally separate note Beth was found eligible to test for placement in the gifted and talented program. It's definitely something to consider. I'll have to sleep on that one.
