I met a woman at the park named Miriam Milton. Could it be sign from heaven? My grandmother's name was Miriam and my grandfather was Milton, both died in the last year and 1/2. I believe we were destined to be friends. Miriam Milton is the proud mom of 15 month old boy/girl twins named David and Hannah. They are adorable. She asked me, "Are you the twins' mom???" I answered, "Yes, you know them?" She told me that she comes to the park every morning at the same time as my kids. She has watched them grow since they were 6 months old. She went on to say, "I adore them both. They are such great kids. I have a special place in my heart for your son. I saw his sister climbing to the top of the jungle gym and remember that your nanny was concerned that he wouldn't walk. And look at him now! He's amazing!"
Later in the week, we made plans to get together for a play date over the weekend, but unfortunately her daughter was sick so we had to cancel. But we saw each other at the park anyway. I mentioned to her that our schedule might change because I got Sebastian into a special program. She looked at me very concerned. "He's ok, right? He's healthy?" I said, "Indeed he is, but he's extra small and always will be." She looked at me with a tear in her eye. "You have no idea how much I love your son. He is such a miracle."
I have heard from others at the park similar comments. They have watched Sebastian overcome his challenges with such determination. He is a bit of a famous kid at the park. And they also comment about Daniela that she is ridiculous with her physical abilities. I'm so proud of both of them for their individual abilities. Nothing will stop Dani. And Sebastian will work his tush off until he can do all the same things. My kids are awesome.
