A stone cutter may strike a rock ninety-nine times with no apparent effect, not even a crack on the surface. Yet with the hundredth blow, the rock splits in two. It was not the final blow that did the trick, but all that had gone before. I may pursue a goal for months without obvious results and become convinced that I am wasting my time. But if I continue sharing about my struggles and being patient with myself, I may awaken to find that I have changed, seemingly overnight. Suddenly I have the acceptance and self-confidence I have been seeking. The results may have revealed themselves abruptly, but I know that all those months of faith and hard work made the changes possible.

Well, time to hit the pillow, it's way past midnight...quiet here. Sasha's asleep under my rocker; Lucien's downstairs asleep in Sasha's bed...hugging his toy mouse I'm sure of it. I'm one lucky mom.
