I am a SAHM and am grateful every day that I’m able to be there for my two boys, Connor almost 5 and Maxwell nearly 2. Connor is happy, bright and healthy boy but Max has severe problems. He has severe heart and lung issues and extreme food allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, soy, vanilla, and is severely allergic to Dogs. I am most proud of… Read More how I raised Connor to have compassion. When Max was born he nearly died several times over the first year and we had to make huge lifestyle changes to keep him safe, like finding a new home for Connor’s dog, giving up a lot of unsafe foods, and drastic changes in our daily life. Young as Connor was when it began he never fought me, hes never blamed his brother for the things hes had to give up. When we go to a birthday party and the cake isn’t “safe” for his brother, he won’t eat it because he doesn’t want Max to feel left out. I take some serious credit for that, I taught him compassion, and he conveys nothing but love and empathy.
