Catching up on blogs this morning and am reading this one now. Hudson is a dear and a joy! And as the mama of said toddler who’s finger got chomped, we say “it happens.” She still loves Hudson and so do we! 🙂

Allie just got around to reading this and a perfect time to do so. My mom is having a spell right now and all I can do is sit close her and wait for it to pass. Reading this put a big smile on my face….I love Hudsons naughtiness. He is so blessed to have you as his mommy.

In reply to Cheyanne @ No Spoon Necessary. Thank you friend, I so love having you visit and hearing your kind and insightful comments. I hadn't even thought of Bruce Almighty and the moon but you are so right! (Funny.) Your nephew must be precious. Have a great week Chey. XO

J’en suis sure, c’est la faute a la lune! Hudson n’est pour rien! La lune est tellement puissant qu’on perd tous un peu les nerfs! Quand mes enfants étaient dans la maternelle (petit école pour les enfants de 3 ans jusqu’à 5 ans) la professeure disse toujours que quand la lune était plein, les enfants étaient incontrôlables! Hudson est adorable!

I loved reading about your little man. The toddler might have had sore fingers and the pumpkin might not have had a long life, but the patting on the back of the sad boy in church surely makes up for any Harvest Moon disruption.

We also had a beautiful, clear moon last Tuesday, We were in Inverness (Scotland) and it was so stunning I stared at it for 40 minutes or so before I got my camera out.

Thanks again for taking part in Feature my Food Friday lovely!

I LOVE your weekend musings, Allie! I totally swooned over that Harvest Moon last week, it was impossible to miss! It reminded me of the Bruce Almighty, when he pulls the moon down for Jennifer Aniston. lol. Anyways, I love the way you look at life! Cherishing the beautiful and empathetic things children, or anyone does is a much better way to enjoy life. The bad times and bad behavior is a part of life, unfortunately. BUT, Hudson’s heart and compassion are things to relish in! My nephew is autistic, so I understand what you are talking about when you say children with special needs are more like other children than one might think. My nephew is the most compassionate little man ever. When you write about Hudson I always think about (and miss) him. Beautiful post, as always. Cheers to a fabulous week, my dear! Hugs! xo

In reply to Barbara Child. Thank you so much Barbara for these very kind words. I know firsthand from my own sister and now my Hudson that having a person with a disability in the family changes everyone in positive ways. It's not that it's necessarily easy or always a big party, it's just that it grows us in ways that only happen through stretching. I'm thankful for the ways we are all growing, also for the ways I see Hudson growing. Though I won't lie, I wish some of his growth happened faster. The developmental rate of children with special needs is on such a different curve. xoxo
