it's been a rough afternoon for connor man.
 he's extremely agitated, and super uncomfortable.  his little cheek is red, he's been so worked up.
his poor little lip keeps splitting too.  no matter what i put on it, it never seems to heal.  i know i have tried every single product out there.  nothing seems to help.
 he's been whimpering today.
  it's the cutest saddest little noise in the world.
and the grinding of the teeth.  oh how i wish i could make his pain go away so he wouldn't have to grind his little teeth.
 i'm not sure what the discomfort is about this afternoon, breathing? stomach? both?
i just know that he is such a soldier.  he endures so much every day, all day long.  
 he is my greatest example of strength and courage.
he is my hero.
i love my sweet boy.

  1. President James E. Faust said: “I have a great appreciation for those loving parents who stoically bear and overcome their anguish and heartbreak for a child who was born with or who has developed a serious mental or physical infirmity. This anguish often continues every day, without relief, during the lifetime of the parent or the child. Not infrequently, parents are required to give superhuman nurturing care that never ceases, day or night. Many a mother’s arms and heart have ached years on end, giving comfort and relieving the suffering of her special child."

    “Eventually the time will come when each ‘spirit and … body shall be reunited again in … perfect form; both limb and joint shall be restored to its proper frame’ (Alma 11:43). Then, thanks to the Atonement of Jesus Christ, we can become perfected in Him.”

  2. Christa, that was perfect. I agree with her Crissy, you are amazing. You are doing everything you can and remember he feels your love and your strength. Also remember how close he is to the spirit and our father in heaven. LOVE YOU!
