Is it our thoughts that create our emotions or our emotions that create our thoughts? Or can it be a bit of both? This is the question I am working through as I step out onto a new path in the journey of life. My hope is that the answer is both and that the past 4 years have paved, or graveled the way for the next path.
We got a phone call this morning about Kenzie and her sleep issues and the developmental specialist tried to tell us that Kenzie cannot be having night terrors because she is to little to be aware, and since we got her when she was two days old she will not have been traumatized by her adoption. I gently said that Kenzie's amydula right from birth has been creating emotional memories, and she does have the emotional imprint of being taken away from the woman who she spent nine months growing inside and two days with being loved up before she was placed with us. I did appreciated that the lady said that I am mommy and I know best, which is true, thus we will continue to hold and comfort Kenzie and bring her and Jaris into bed with us, if we feel it is in their best interest for developing and growth.
Jaris is getting stronger and stronger every day and I love playing with him and watching him develop. I also love it when he smiles because he hears my voice or sees me walk into a room. I may be one tired mommy, yet I am one very blessed mommy!
