Stephen has been acting like a bad teenager today.
He is acting out because of all the changes that are being
imposed on him. Anyone can see that.
Even if he can see that the changes will benefit him.
Allow him some down time. His mother is all he has.
And she is being moved to another room.
To Stephen it must feel like another world. And I feel
for him.
He was being told to do a few chores today. And
he was in the chicken yard screaming at Trina. And
I just walked up to him right in the midst of all his
screaming. And I hugged him.
He didn’t even fight it.
I don’t know why I did that. I’m not a mother. I don’t know
what kids need.
Maybe “I” just needed it. Maybe I could relate to all
his screaming frustration more than I want to know I
relate to it.
I wake up every morning and want to scream.
I want to ask the powers that be, “WHY ARE WE STILL
HERE?!!!”
