Some Days
Some days are better than other days.
Some days Ellie talks when the speech therapist is here.
Some days a mom of a similarly-aged child says, "Jack just started doing that too!"
Some days Ellie shows me that she understands something far better than I thought she did.
Other days are harder.
Other days I realize that she's not going to grow out of this.
Other days I realize that this battle is just beginning, and we're still at the easy part.
Other days I worry about the future.
Every day she melts my heart with her smile, anyway.

I'm so glad you posted here Sarahlynn! I so enjoy reading over at your blog, and this is a great poem expressing exactly the whole down-ups of these days.
Thank you both!
