Nice relaxing weekend filled with Friends, Homework, and Babysitting!
I just started babysitting for a new family with 3 children! 2 of the 3 have special needs and it just breaks my heart to see these two struggling! They have all been adopted and unfortunately, due to inconsistent lives growing up, they now suffer from a variety of diseases. I never realized before how horrible our overflow is of children just waiting to be adopted out there! Thank goodness for the kind hearted people out there who can lend a hand to be foster and adoptive parents!!! Saturday was such a valuable lesson for me. Please just keep in mind while at the mall, or drug store, or out to dinner: if you see a child misbehaving, don't always be so quick to judge the child or the parents! You never know what's going on in people's lives.. This experience makes me so so thankful to be studying the field of OT! :)
