Do you remember being a child and worrying about being embarrassed or what people might think? I sure do and Jocelyn is no different. Although she is quite wise for her little mind she is still a child. During Tuesday's dinner conversation we were talking about Logan getting his nightly leg braces. Jocelyn got a look on her face that said I don't like this. Me being the loving/caring person I am started encouraging her to talk about the look she was displaying. "What's wrong Jocelyn?" "Are you bothered?" I was able to read that she did not want to let out what she was thinking in front of everyone. So I told her that we would talk about it later.
That evening while tucking her into bed for the night she opened up saying, "Mommy I don't want to have to walk Logan to class in a wheelchair. It will embarrass me. "I then ask her "Do you love him?" Her response with no surprise to me was YES. "Then that is all that matters." "When it happens your love for Logan will be what you care about."
I believe that Jocelyn will be very protective of that little guy. Logan is her brother and I hope she won't allow anyone to embarrass her. Love will prevail.

Angie,
ReplyDeleteI can say that Jocelyn will be on one side and Allie will be on the other and no one will hurt or be embarrised about Logan. He is such a cute and great little boy. He has touched our lives in the little time that we have known him. We pray for him and your family everynight.
God Bless, Ang.
