You might be a trauma-mama

Ever seen that old skit "You might be a redneck if..."

Here's my take on that (and by the way, we are now less than 50 days away!).

You might be a trauma-mama if...
* you celebrate your child maintaining eye contact for 12.2 seconds
* you get used to finding food shoved in strange places in your home
* when you're talking about alphabet soup, you don't mean Campbells; you mean RAD, FASD, PTSD, etc
* you have a whole new group of friends who speak the same language - and you haven't even moved to a foreign country
* you flinch when you hear a police siren go by and wonder if they're coming to your house
* you find yourself feeling a strange emotion one day and, with wonder, recognize that it's happiness

- and that's just this week for me!
