Uneventful

Is my life that boring that I have absolutely nothing to say in a blog?

Actually, work is fascinating, but confidentiality keeps me from being able to discuss it in detail. I'll just say that my work is fulfilling, yet frustrating at the same time. My heart aches for these kids. I long to help them. But rules hinder us from doing the very things I think will help them.

I am reminded of Helen Keller. Anne Sullivan's methods seemed foreign and even harsh to Helen's parents, but Anne loved that girl and wanted her to learn. It took only one month of doing things Anne's way before Helen's behavior began to change and her progress took off.

What progress would occur if we were allowed to really help our kids?
