I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who read my last post in Google reader before I deleted it, and to everyone who responded to it. After talking with Mr. M last night, we decided to take down the post because even though much of what I wrote concerns me and the support I need, it also isn't just about me and my needs.
As our kids get older, they have their own lives and their own rights to privacy, so that is why I took it down.
The truth is that I really do need the support - I have a big job to do raising these kids, and I want to make sure I do it right, you know? And as we navigate into some very unfamiliar waters, I just love having you guys to throw me a life preserver every now and then.
Every person I've talked to about this has been so supportive and helpful. I never regret reaching out. So, I hope to be able to do that in the future here on the blog, as well. Just the outpouring of support from the few of you who read that post was just so uplifting to me. So, thank you!
I even had one reader (Chris) who shared with me the name of a doctor who is in our insurance network, who could be a great resource for us! Just this one tip alone may have saved us thousands of dollars - because up until now, all the providers I've found have not been covered by our insurance.
I really do want to share because I feel like I get so much support and helpful ideas from you guys. On the other hand, I just don't know how much to share. It is hard not to feel alone with this, unless I can talk about it, you know?
So, thanks for being patient with me! Hopefully I can repost that blog post someday soon...I guess I just need to think about it a little more before I press "Publish." ;-)
Have a great weekend, and again, I love you guys!!!

Really loved the photos of P. The magic all started with her and she just grows more endearing with each passing day. I love her tender heart and soul.
I came back to post a comment but it was gone. We are going through the same thing with my four year old girl. I thought it was very brave of you to share and I hope you can continue. We haven't even told a lot of our friends just because it seems so complex and hard to explain we don't know where to start. I would have liked to read the other comments. Stay strong mama!
I didn't read the post, but I hope you find all of the necessary tools to get through this. I also wanted to tell you how much I LOVE these pictures. They are some of my favorites! I love all of your pictures, but these are absolutely priceless.
