The Little Engine That Could


Last night as Andy and I read his favorite book, "Mouse Town", he asked me what my favorite book was when I was a little girl.I told without even thinking it was, "The Little Engine That Could". You know the one where the little engine says,"I think I can, I think I can". I use to make my Mom read that one over and over. I guess that sentiment has kind of stuck with me over the years.

It reminds me that although I might not have great beauty, or intellect, I do have great tenacity, and sometimes that is what is needed. This has been a hard week, I've been sick and at the same time struggling with our school to get not just the services Will needs but to improve services that Caitlyn and Andy already have.

I think I hear my Mom whispering in my ear,"I think I can, I think I can..........."
