Lorraine reminded me today to be positive. I don't know what happened but once we hit the interstate I just was hit with a wave of anxiety. Uncontrollable unfiltered anxiety. I became negative. Was so for most of trip until hubby held my hand and helped me take a deep breath then stopped and got me a chocolate milkshake. Maybe I took to much Diabetic meds. I don't know but it was hard to breath. And Lorraine sensed it. I realized she kept checking me out. Watching my face. She teared up a few times for no real reason. She in small ways acted out. She sees me as this person who mostly but always shows up when Mommys weak and sick. I swoop in scoop them up and take care of them. So I think she sorta looks at me as a stabilizer?? So this insightful little thing was upset because she was reading my face. Wow!!!! When it hit me. It hit me hard. And instantly I changed. From that moment not one tear. It was smiles and laughs. People if a 2 yr old is that insightful to the emotional atmosphere think of the energy we send out by every word. Expression. Comment. And action. It was powerful. This little girl reinforced a major lesson. TY little one!!!!!
