Developmental Ups and Downs
by Christy
We were dealt a blow yesterday. Katie is behind. When Andy was on insulin so many years ago, we knew he was behind. He wasn’t doing anything he should be doing right on track. As a parent, you always want the best for your child, but you also instinctively “know” when something is wrong.
