I thoroughly enjoy following your blog, and look forward to the daily posts on your Instagram account. As someone who has previously worked alongside individuals with special needs, it is so inspiring to see you shed light on what incredible people they are, and their abilities. I also have enjoyed getting to know your family through this capacity and am discouraged others have taken things too far. I hope your sense of privacy and boundaries are restored after altering your privacy settings, and that we are still able to follow along on your journey. Take care!

There are some parents who repeatedly use the term "hard" and it really bothers me because as you mentioned the foundation of parenthood is unconditional love. When you truly love someone, a lot of the other just fades to the background... And I love to hear that you consider Josie to be your dream come true... one look at her and I get it!

Also, I read "Leanne's Top 5," like you suggested, and the one with the Nielsen TV ratings SLAYED me. Because Joshua. And FULL HOUSE (and maybe BOY MEETS WORLD!). I love reading about Leanne and Josie...and how their lives and the rest of your family's lives are intertwined and connected. I love the bond the two of them share. Your encouragement blesses me daily. :)Martyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17558855143587226270noreply@blogger.com
