Iam Sucker For the Puppy Eyes


When giving my children time to do their homework., it seems that they rather play for another hour than get down to business. When I notice they are going to slack off I put my foot down by saying no playtime learning time . All of a sudden my middle child bats those big baby browns and says peas mommy not please but peas and like a sucker I fall right into trap and say okay ten more minutes . Ten more minutes turns into one hour. I have learned that these kids aren’t amateurs at this they have credentials. I notice my little daughter starts to bats those eyes and says mama and she’s right out of the baby seat. I must have a sign on my forehead that says Sucker . What I have choose to do is talk to them and explain that homework is important when we are done then we can play until we pass out . So the next time they bat those baby browns, I know exactly what to do, and that is put on a pair of shades.

STEPIN STONES


Every time you attempt to speak transforms into a movement toward coming out of your world.
Together we can throw the stones into the abyss. Each time you try to express yourself and receive what you can not comprehend becomes a step up the ladder to effort and success. Steping up to change the outcome, climbing instead of falling. Together we walk, side by side through hallways, tunnels rising above the quick sand, together we fight. Together we throw stone and stone into the abyss of Autism. We are stepin stone, reaching what some call impossible, despite the inevitable, we step and we climb together, we take it one step at a time til we reach that door. Together in love
