Simple day
Yesterday Jordan's sixth tooth arrived after all that hard work. Thank goodness. This morning we had fun with breakfast. I enjoyed taking pictures of her and I decided to capture just a normal moment with my girl in video. We giggled at each other while she popped Cheerios and threw her sippy cup on a regular basis. So here's just a little moment in the high chair:
Jordan has been working very hard on words, but lately it seems her standing and pulling up skills are trumping words. But in the last day, she points at pictures and dolls and says: "tritty" I have to believe that means "pretty." I find that to be pretty darn sweet.
Can you believe she's 13 months old now? Just amazing.
I've started working out again... I got up at 5:20 this morning to exercise. So why amd I still awake? That's a good question. Randy just gave me a stern talking to before he went to bed. It just feels like I can never do enough -- with work, with blogging... with just brainlessly surfing the web or knitting (which I learned how to do this weekend). So I should head off to bed. I just wanted to update with a few smiles to share with everyone. I've been pondering heavier thoughts... But I'll hold off for another day.

I love that video of Jordan. My goodness, she is a character. I also watched the video above, "A Girl Like Me" and found is disheartening.
I have the same questions as you about preserving our children's self esteem. I think we can only do our best and hope they find that strength in themselves to hold onto their own self worth. I also think as far as the limb difference thing is concerned, knowing they are not alone may make a huge difference.
Thank goodness for online support groups and the internet.
Jordan is not alone and neither are you.
