I have accepted my disability caused by MS. I have accepted that my son is very stubborn. He never does anything unless he wants to do it.
You have to bribe him for him to do anything you want him to do. Normally the bribe is some type of food. I refuse to let him take food into the bathroom. I allow for toys. It is as far as I will go. Today when I told little man to go to the bathroom he ran to the bathroom door and tried to open it. He tried to use the potty by himself. He did not have much luck because he was wearing an all in one outfit.
He has accepted the potty. He does not see it as an enemy. Now it is time for big boy underwear.
He is like his mother. I hate having to use a cane. I know it is necessary. It is something I have to use to help me get around. The problem is that it is difficult to chase a one year old with a cane. I have accepted it. I find myself saying my favorite prayer for strength and to accept the things I cannot change.
I pray that I have the strength to chase him. I pray they find a cure for MS. One thing I have that helps me is the knowledge that I am not alone.
I have family and I have HIM.
P.S. If anyone has a direct line to the Tooth Fairy. Can you please tell the tooth fairy that my eight year old lost her last baby tooth and she is anxiously waiting for her money.
TWO DOWN ONE MORE TO GO!
