Nice article. I think most of the time as moms we feel overwhelmed of our responsibilities, even more when you are a mother of special needs children it takes the word "patience" to a whole different level. As the article states, I think is very important to say thanks and appreciate our kids when they do something nice or small, it really helps with their self esteem and helps us as moms to see the brighter side of things.
