I dove head first into a world where special needs has the cup overflowing. It is the children that outwit their descriptions. I love them. They are inspiring humans. Here I will capture the cute, the funny, the witty. I will note what coping parents say and the poetry I find along the way. I'll end up comparing my experiences to what I imagine theirs to be. I apologize if I don't capture the moment as you would. I'm trying to tease out the overlap. It is my intention to do you justice.

It can be hard to tell
I am with a typically developing brother to pick up his special needs brother from a soccer camp. Afterward there is pizza and punch in a standing cooler. After the cups run out, the typically developing brother bends down and turns his head up under the spigit of the cooler. Now, red punch is streaming down the front of his shirt. Sometimes it's hard to tell which of us have the "special needs". ; ) As one Mom said, "I have one with special needs, and two with constant needs." : )
