Welcome to "the club"

I apologize to those of you who follow both of my blogs but I feel like this post needed shared BOTH places!

A fellow "Rett Mommy" (thanks Erica!) posted this link on facebook and I was so moved by it that I want to share it with all of you who read this blog: http://adiaryofamom.wordpress.com/2009/05/01/welcome-to-the-club/
You see.......over the past three years I have joined quite a few "clubs" The Rett Syndrome Club, The Preemie Club, The Down Syndrome Club, & The Divorced Single Mom Club. None of these were memberships I went looking for but nevertheless, I joined (I may or may not have joined kicking and screaming and possibly even crying.) However, each of them has changed my life dramatically, hopefully for the better. I want to thank each of you in these clubs for making it feel less like a club and more like family. I am a stronger woman because of each of you.

Thank you for posting this. So many of us are members of clubs we didn't even know existed until we were thrown into them ourselves. I never expected to be part of the Mom to a Special Needs Kid club, or the Working Mother with a Stay at Home Husband Club, but here I am. And so I make the best of, just as you seem to do. You're an inspiration just by how you love your kiddos.
