Clouds and Colors
by CoachLeslie in Parenting Children with Special Needs
I woke to clouds on the horizon this morning. As the sun began to rise it threw multiple colors in the sky, and it was just beautiful. Having children with learning disabilities sometimes looks like clouds on the horizon. We can tend to worry about how they will be successful in school and in life. When we wait for the sun we notice that our children’s differences are beautifully colorful. Each individual has a gift. Sometimes these gifts mean that we learn differently.
Embrace the gifts and the unique colors of your student this morning. Forget about disabilities and notice the abilities and possibilities that exist in and through your special student. He deserves to know that you embrace these so he can too! Empower your student to accept and honor their uniqueness today and everyday.
