My oldest son has ADD, and he does a bit of that as well.<br /><br />You bring such a wonderful, unique, and needed perspective and view the world so differently because of your experiences. I can relate, being the mom of a micropreemie. The world looks different from our perspectives!Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07604805225366129402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917641406625510012.post-4811788406493722372012-12-06T00:36:24.805-08:002012-12-06T00:36:24.805-08:00Thanks Stacey!
