[quote=Anonymous]Dear OP and PP's who encouraged you to go: Thank you for this. I'm at home with a really crappy cold (and a chronic illness) and am in a bad mood and was sort of all "well of course she shouldn't go ..." and then I started reading your posts and stepping outside of my icky mood and self and putting myself in the little boy's shoes and OF COURSE OP should try to go and OF COURSE the 30-45 minutes of inconvenience to her could mean a lifetime of difference to a kid. Seriously. And while it'd be okay if something had come up (or comes up) and she hadn't gone, gosh, what a difference a shift in perspective can make .... So thank you for going, for that little guy, and thank you for getting me to remember and realize it is SO not about convenience or illness or even bedtimes and bottles, sometimes. Sometimes, it's about that 'smile and wave' from the stage. Thanks, everybody.[/quote]
