A missed post and a new day rolled into one — packed with early starts, appointments, and the challenges of overstimulation and technical hiccups. We pushed through tears and a meltdown without surrender, earning a McDonald’s lunch and a nap as our reward. Days like these are exhausting, but they remind us to accept, keep moving forward, and never stop encouraging. Merida may cry, but she always tries — whether proving a doctor wrong or enjoying broccoli, spinach, and goat cheese most kids wouldn’t touch. Growth comes from trying, and we never stop cheering her on.
