I went to bed really worried last night. In the past most of Avri's big seizures came around 5am. I finally fell asleep around 1:30am...well that was the last time I looked at the clock. My night was full of screams and my kids yelling out "MOM". I got up once around 3am and then again some time later, sat up a number of times. SILENCE...all was good and calm in all the minds of my kids. The only screaming and yelling out was in my own mind!
As I go through the challenges with Avri's health and my crazy out of control son and my 4 other children. This is a great reminder quote! DON'T GET ME WRONG HERE... I love being a mom but it has come with great challenges! Motherhood truly has been about the moments! It is frustrating to get up in the middle of the night to make rounds, but there is also a moment to take in when you see your peaceful children in a restful state. It can bring you comfort and piece.... kind of reminds you where they came from!
"Recognize that the joy of motherhood comes in moments. There will be hard times and frustrating times. But amid the challenges, there are shining moments of joy and satisfaction. " By M. Russel Ballard
Avri was born in 1997 with congenital hydrocephalus. She currently has 2 vp shunts. This is a blog about a girl who has every thing stacked against her. The doctors said she should not live. This is for inspiration to anyone who has ever been told it is not possible. This is all about Avri's struggles and triumphs!
