They'll Be Days Like These.........

Yep........one of THOSE days.......When my sweet daughter wakes up in the morning in someone else's body, professing to every willing or unwilling ear, that "Nothing is right!".........

This is her life and therefore mine.......It takes patience, compassion and creativity to work around this imposter occupying her mood......

I gave her some quiet time alone...offered soft, classical music, and finally a "sun and Sadie" break outdoors.....This is what finally helped soften the uninvited imposter......

It's a challenge on these days, mostly for her.....I can't pretend to understand how it feels......

But when every cell of my being senses "danger ahead" and I want to drop, cover and roll, I take a deep breath......sometimes a lot more than that and get closer......it's a challenge to know when to create space and when to move in......

Mostly it's always remembering the sweet girl I love so much inside this body snatcher imposition....

It's temporary...and it will pass...and she will emerge my baby girl.......

Inhale.........

Exhale......
