I want to take a moment and say thank you to everyone
that has reached out to me in the last day. I am always in awe over the
response from controversial posts like the one yesterday or the previous postpartum blog. Everyone has a story
or some thing that they could contribute.

| Its all about standing out. |
Thank you to the teddy bear of a man that let me cry on
his shoulder in the supply closet as I was hiding at work.
Thank you to anyone who shared a personal story via fb,
pm, or text. I appreciate your experience, thoughts and your wisdom.
Thank you to the girl I haven't spoken to since college.
I appreciate your outlook that he may grow up to be whomever he wants to be.
Boy, girl, transgender, or anything he wants. The different perspective was
what I needed.
Thank you world for the Scary Mommy post about the bond
between moms and their boys. Thank you Big Bang Theory for the show on gender
disappointment. The universe is serendipitous like that.
Thank you to Levi, Aubin and Baby J. You all dont know what you mean to me. Thank you for being so patient and understanding. Aubs-thanks for the cuddles yesterday and the great Moana adventure last night :)
Lastly, To the people that may not fully understand how
someone can feel the way I do, thank you. You may, or may not have reached out
but I thank you because everyone is struggling with something and we all need
to be there for each other.
That last sentence is worth repeating. Everyone is
struggling with something. My issues do not devalue what may be affecting you
in your life, and vise versa. Everyone should understand we are all fighting
something regardless of how big or small an issue is to you. It shouldn't matter what is happening in your life, someone else may facing THEIR biggest issue on the same day. Be kind
because you don't know, nor can you tell a person how to feel--regardless of
how you think they should be feeling.
Do great things
Linds
