I wanted to give you all an update on Baby Zee, and I thought of this quote. I had planned to write about how kids "like him" can be difficult to love and then I was going to try to guilt you in to stepping up to the plate to help care for "the least of these". But here is the problem....
He is not difficult to love.
He is difficult to transport (oxygen tank, ventilator, pulse ox monitor, portable suction machine, emergency "go bag" and all his g tube stuff. Oh and a diaper bag....don't forget that part).
But he is so easy to love.
When he wakes up every morning, his eyes get wide and he studies my face for a second before his whole face (I swear he smiles with his WHOLE FACE) lights up in the biggest smile as if to say "It is you again! You are still here! You are taking care of me again today! I know you!"
Circumstances can be difficult when he is having problems, or the power goes out (that is a whole situation), or his machines are acting sketchy or he is sick. But all kids....all people have difficult circumstances. His just look a little different than most.
But he is SO easy to love.
