‘Cause reading 3 or 4 books at a time like me just wasn’t enough!! Lillian’s reading 7 at a time …. She was reading one when I took this picture. This is what I found when I walked in her room this morning! Silly girl!

Books on Lillian's Bed June 11 2013

______________________________

From Lillian y’all : Hi y’all for those who are going to the 18p- conference this year, i’d like your 18p- child or teenager to practice jumping in the pool by bouncing high on their bed if it is bouncy and if you let them. But for those who aren’t, i’d like you to not give up hope. I hope those who are coming to 18p- conference. Hope you have a great time.
Sincerely,
Lillian

Thomas got a physical this afternoon so we can turn in his application for horse riding at Adaptive Center for Therapeutic Riding! You would think he has never been to the doctor!! (Well, actually, it’s been a year or two!) I hope poor Dr. Bertz isn’t having a hard time going to sleep tonight still reeling from all the questions, jokes and talking Mr. T shared with her.

He LOVED getting his knee “hit with that hard thing” and watching his leg jump. I told him his new nickname is Sir Talks-A-Lot! I handled it all very well since I spilled my entire bottle of water in my tote bag and spent the whole time trying to dry out my writing journal, the 3 books in the bag and the physical form she was to fill out!

Literally, it was a mini-lake! I’m so glad I meditate! It was a GREAT adventure!! Just have some books with crispy pages and a journal with crispy pages to match …. and a little boy who had a FUN time going to the doctor! Big hug to anyone who needs it tonight!

She said, “I updated the “about” section on my website. You wanna go look at it?” What I read made my eyes sweat. This incredible human who came into this world at only 4 pounds and whose quality of life at 3 years old was not given high hopes, continues to surprise, delight, and inspire me. Here’s the link for those wanting a dose of inspiration …

She’s still at it …. and she’s good! Another from Lillian … xoxo

“When you or someone else is calm, you will feel a lot better. You will be more confident and relaxed. You will be happy, mindful, grateful, thankful and joyful.

Take a moment to read this quote. If you want to, share it with family, friends, and relatives.

“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.” – Buddha … ”

Throwback Post: Volcanic Like Eruption

**THROWBACK POST**

July 9 2015

An experience and opportunity for growth and learning presented itself yesterday with the amazing Lillian. She had a meltdown with a volcanic like eruption as we left the grocery store. I ended up having to pull over at the highway entrance ramp and get out of the car for a moment. I took some deep breaths, prayed to see this differently, and looked down at the ground. This was shining up at me. After that, Lillian chose to use one of the mindfulness techniques we’ve been learning. She got out, chose a rock, held it in her hands and focused on it. Yesterday I was reminded not to let the lower self take over, even if the other person has. Always respond with love. Love is THE answer … May you choose LOVE today …. xoxo … I am in the middle of writing a blog post about the journey with Lillian since this past December. Will share when it is complete and I’m thinking it will be in third person again like the last post …

Cleaning my email inbox and found this email from Lillian from 2011. I asked her if I could share with y’all and she said “Yes”! So sweet! xoxo

“Patty’s Love and Lillian’s Style, Camilla’s fun, Thomas’s Coolness and Frank’s funniness
Once upon a time there was someone named Patty’s Love was sweet but one day she became sick and Romano’s could not be kind and gentle without her, plus 1 day the Romano’s chimed the butterfly chimes then came up with a idea so they made her lunch and Patty’s Love was better.”
