When I say that he will never know the difference (because he was born this way) I think what I am saying is that right now, today, this past year, has been my journey. It’s been my thing to get over or deal with or whatever. One day, I think so much of this will transition into being his journey. I guess that is what awareness is. I’ve been aware since the first day. He seems every now and then to catch a glimpse and notice his arms are not the same. He definitely knows he can do different things with them (cue his walk around the house tonight laughing hysterically with a bottle cap stuck on his right arm). But he doesn’t know yet he is different. I imagine my role will change quite a bit then. I am so grateful for this time I have had for my own processing and awareness raising. I am getting prepared. Also, he gets that hair from me. Sorry #MightyWoody😍
