Lawson is sound asleep.. But Im wide awake! Cant sleep! Just thinking about what life will be like for Ashlei as she goes to middle school next year.. I know I have mentioned a few times that she has Severe Childhood Speech Apraxia... She understand Language but her brain misfires and it makes it hard for her muscles in her mouth to form the words she wants to say... She sounds def or younger than she is.. I know shes made huge improvements! But to others that dont know her its hard to understand her.. And I know shes pushed to the side by other children because she sounds different! It just breaks my heart! I know that it could be worse, but shes my baby! I wonder will she ever have a boyfriend or have a group of girls she hangs out with through middle and high school? Shes very out going and enjoys being around other kids and wants to be apart of things... I have worried and cried over this many nights and tonight is just one of those nights! I tell her shes beautiful all the time no matter what people say or if they look at her funny or question her on why she sounds funny! I just wonder if she believes she beautiful and worthy! Sometimes no matter what we say as parents it just doesnt stick with them, but its what their peers think! My family always told me I was beautiful, but I was called ugly many times by my peers and it stuck with me because I knew I was different and still struggle with self esteem issues! I dont want that for my baby! I just dont know what to do..
