To know her more

I am a very determined Mother.
I will NOT stop until I have gone the extra mile for my children. All of them. God trusted me with each one of them. I want to honor and glorify Him in everything I do.
After many obstacles, roadblocks, set backs, hurdles, etc. I have learned more SAD truths about the services for Visually Impaired Children in the state of Georgia. I called the Savannah Association of the Blind and learned that there is only one, yes...you read that correct, one O&M specialist in Savannah....and she doesn't have any openings.
So....I will continue to be Lilah's "Team Captain."
I enrolled in the Hadley School of the Blind parent education classes.
I am taking on-line classes to help me be a better advocate for Lilah AND to understand what my visually impaired child needs, wants, understands, processes, etc. I am ready and willing to learn what I need to for the sake of Lilah.

I would imagine a class like that would be fun and maybe just as beneficial. Anytime we find ourselves more educated with a greater understanding about our kiddos, it leaves us with more confidence in caring for them. Kudos to you for not just stopping when you learned there was no openings. We call that being proactive.
