My Mistake

I made a mistake today.  I found an old book I had gotten when Coby was a baby- Your Baby's First Year Week by Week.  Granted, that was almost 10 years ago but I don't think a lot has changed as far as developmental milestones, right? It's a terrible thing to compare your kids. But I don't think any parents can help it.  I was looking at the different milestones and was thinking "Liam can do this, but not that.  Coby did this at this age...."  How awful!  And it's going to get worse, I just know it!  First of all, because Coby has Autism, I am constantly already looking for signs.  I'm driving Brian and my mom nutso!  Second, because Coby has such a high IQ and started reading around age 3, and is AG and all that, I'm going to have a hard time if Liam is "typical."  It's sickening to think this way, I know.  I love both my boys equally.  They're my heart!!!  I need to get out of this mindframe.  Each child is different and special in his or her own way!!!


...bestest boys!
My two...
