When you thought I wasn’t looking…

Recently a good friend shared this beautiful poem about parenting.
It was just TOO GOOD to not share with the world. It is one of my new favorites!
“When you thought I wasn’t looking”
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator,
and I wanted to paint another one.
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I saw you feed a stray cat,
and I thought it was good to be kind to animals.
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I saw you make my favorite cake for me,
and I knew that little things are special things.
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I heard you say a prayer,
and I believed that there was a God to talk to.
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I felt you kiss me goodnight,
and I felt loved.
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I saw tears come from your eyes,
and I learned that sometimes things hurt,
but it’s alright to cry.
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I saw that you cared,
and I wanted to be everything that I could be.
When you thought I wasn’t looking,
I looked….
and I wanted to say thanks for all the things
I saw when you thought I wasn’t looking.

How wonderful is Morgan Freeman’s Voice, RIGHT?!
I’ve always loved it.
I have a magnet on my fridge that says,
“I wish Morgan Freeman narrated my life“
and after looking online and not really finding any printables, I decided to make one up myself.
For all you Morgan Freeman Voice Lovers, here you go!

In 2012 my oldest son, Jackson, was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. At that time I had never heard of it and so began this journey. I realized that because of the extent of the diagnosis, I don't have much time with my dear son. I took a year to process, grieve, get upset, test my faith, and then to make the decision of how I would let this affect me. The result is this website, Joy in Jackson's Journey, because I realized that instead of falling down with the pain and heartbreak of my situation, I'm choosing to rise up and face it head on, to fight for my son and to show how I not only survive through this new normal, but thrive.
Our Story
It all began back in January of 2012, Jackson was 3 years old and had a diagnosis of Autism (which I’ll share about later), and I took him to see a Biomedical doctor to try the gluten free/casein free diet and supplements to see if if would help him out. After meeting with the doctor she ordered a routine bloodtest to make sure that there wasn't any underlying disorders before beginning supplements.
A few days after getting Jackson’s bloodwork done, I got a phone call from the Doctor. It is a day I will NEVER forget. First of all, because I knew she was away on a family vacation and she was calling me and #2) because she then said, ”I received Jackson’s labs and I need to discuss something with you”.
