The Unexpected Leads to Meltdown

November 10 2017:

The Unexpected: I had a service request for a slow draining tub with a note to call me first before entering. In the past they have always called first. This time. They didn’t.

I was out for walk and when I got back I ran into the maintenance guy headed away from our place. Lillian did not let him inside so I invited him to come inside with me.

After he left, a huge meltdown ensued that took Lillian two hours to recover from. She was not expecting this and it threw her schedule and morning out of whack.

I am so incredibly thankful for the path I have been led. The path of meditation, mindfulness, immersing in nature, emotional connection, Reiki, and now, EFT – tapping. Lillian will be one of my next tapping clients! HA!

It is imperative that I meet her volatile outburst with the opposite. I’m not able to do that every time, yet, most times I am able to hold a space of peace and calm. xoxo

Little Washoe Lake Team TLC 10.11.15 #1

I think there are quite a few 18p- beauties that have difficulties with this. Yes, it takes so much practice and they are here to be a mirror for us when we aren’t walking our talk, for sure. I try to always let them know I am not handling a situation as I would like to handle it so they know that even I don’t agree with how I’m handling it, but my humanness has taken over! HA!

 

Wee Respite and Independence for Lillian

November 8 2017:

For the past month or so Lillian has been going to the lodge once a week and spending solo time. I walk over with her, and she walks back alone. She stays anywhere from 1-3 hours.

I’m so grateful for this wee respite! And grateful she’s got somewhere close to go and practice being independent.

Text Messaging with Lillian 11.8.17

It’s semi-private … only people who live in the complex would be there. Has a coffee/hot chocolate/tea room, fireplace, pool table, big screen televisions, very small 12 person theater, and some comfy chairs and tables. The complex office is inside also.

Lillian stays in one spot and so far has just been using her electronics. It’s a start. Hopefully, she’ll get comfortable enough to take a book over or some artwork.

I think the next step would be dropping her off at the library for a bit. I want her to get used to communicating with people she does not know and who are going to have a difficult time understanding her spoken word. She has got to figure out how she wants to communicate with people when I’m not there (and not just be okay with them misunderstanding and her giving up.)

The Golden Yellow Colored Pencil

November 29 2017:

“When I first discovered the “golden yellow” colored pencil years ago, I came home and began looking for it right away in my colored pencils. Now I have lots of them and they are great for coloring stars!” -Lillian Darnell

Twirling Fairy Princess

**THROWBACK POST**

October 17 2013:

When I stepped outside last night to take in our beautiful sunset … I caught a glimpse of the fairy princess that visits us. Laid flat on the ground and took some pictures of her twirling in the sunset sky show before she disappeared. Perhaps she’ll have her wings showing next time!

The Ideas Are Inside of Us for a Reason – Where Would You Fly

**THROWBACK POST**

October 15 2015:

This sweet little delicate hand. She found this leaf yesterday on our walk around the lake. She brought it all the way home, then released it in the wind. She asked me to take a picture of it. Due to sensory issues I don’t get to hold that sweet little hand in mine, don’t get to snuggle up close to her, and don’t get to smother her with kisses. I’m taking this sweet little hand in mine (in my imagination) and we are about to begin a fun adventure. She and I are going to put our imaginations and hearts together and write our first children’s book. Let’s see what we come up with. The ideas must be inside of us for a reason. Time to release them just like that beautiful leaf. xoxo

**Update** November 5 2017: Want to help? “Where Would You Fly and Other Magical Stories” is in the final stages of editing. Then our angel helper will be adding Lillian’s artwork and transforming into a book format.

It would be an incredible blessing for Team TLC to pre-sell 10-50 copies of the book. It should arrive by end of November 2017 at the latest. Plus you will receive a special gift for pre-purchasing. xoxo
