Tyler has been struggling once again with his depression and anxiety. Really struggling. I was hoping that when school got out for the summer that the stress and worry would be gone and that he would perk up again, but no such luck. He is not a happy boy right now. We are trying everything that we possibly can to help him and so today he and I started a new challenge. He started a blog and I am using my blog to document something that we are grateful for each day. We will see how long we can go without missing a day. I know that this won't "cure" him, but I am hoping that this will help him see past himself each day, even if it is just for a couple of minutes. And so for my first "I'm grateful" post.
Summer Evenings
I love sitting outside on summer evenings. It is has cooled down to a perfect temperature and I love visiting or playing with my family as the summer sun slowly sets to finish off another day. I feel relaxed and content and I am in no hurry to rush inside to put the kids to bed. The last few evenings have been lovely. They are rejuvenating to my soul.
