Many times along this journey with Josiah the path has looked rather bleak. Try as I might to look for joy and find humor, it’s not always easy. There are times quite honestly, I just wish we were on a different road, one demanding less but promising more. If it weren’t for this blog, I would probably never even admit that to myself let alone anyone else.
In those difficult moments I feel sorry for myself. I feel sorry for Josiah and I feel sorry for our family. I compare our lives to others and wonder why we don’t have it as easy as so many do. Why the constant struggles? Why the increasing aggression? Why the daily battles?
