You can use it if you must, but I believe I invented it. <br /><br />Gosh, no one ever gives me any credit. Wah. Excuse me while I wax listless about it.<br /><br />But really, I should throw that victim voice in the trash. If the little starling doesn't need it, neither do I.<br /><br />Thanks for the reminder. :-)Rachel Cohen-Rottenberghttp://www.journeyswithautism.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-63914908795941910082010-05-26T03:00:21.119-04:002010-05-26T03:00:21.119-04:00This one is awesome:

You remind me to be a better parent and appreciate my kids differences as a part of who they are, not a limitation. Thank you for that.
