Lessons I'm learning

I want to help the world.  I tend to over extend myself.  I try to be super woman.  Funny it never works out.  When things go wrong I find a way to blame myself.
Lil Dan set me straight today.  I told him I had not been being the mom he knew, and I was sorry.  His response Mom nobody thinks straight in chaos.  It is not possible. You did do the best you could. Funny exactly what the Drs have been saying.  I guess I needed to hear it from someone who lived it and understood.  Rick will be going to an academy for at least 6 mos to 1 1/2 years.  In that time I hope we all move forward in healing.
I talked with my bishop, I can wear jeans to church.  Thats a good thing Im not ready for the whole dress thing.  He reminded me that church is not for perfect people (who are they?) its more of a rehab.  Fantastic!
I understand RAD very well.  Now if we could get others to understand it would be great.
My thought for the day ~ Oh my goodness how did this happen, I am human.  They say never to take RAD personally, I understand that.  My question is for those who came up with that, have they ever lived with a RAD?  Because a RAD goes straight for the heart.  But realize those same children are just trying to be safe the only way they know how.
