just sharing :)

My husband has been in Arizona for a week now so I have had tons of mommy time with the girls this week. We have been reading tons of books. We recently purchased the ACC and me book from NODCC and I had read it before to Brianna (not that Brianna cares much for it) (Brianna is the 2 year old with C-ACC) but never thought to read it to her big sister Hailey and explain to her that Brianna has what Dexter (the boy in the book with c-ACC) has and what it does to Brianna. So I did and surprisingly Hailey age 4 really understood it, now she goes around saying she doesnt have ACC and she has all her brain and that Brianna is a special baby because "she doesnt have a little piece of brain" so put by Hailey, she says "Bianna have ACCC" (yeah she adds an extra C) lol and she says "Bianna cant walk yet or talk because she have ACCC but when she gets big like me she will walk and talk like me but I dont have ACCC". Just wanted to share that he hehe I think it is sooooo cute that Hailey acknowledges that Brie has "something wrong with her brain" I couldnt ask for a better big sister for Brianna.... Hailey is great and although the two years age difference seems to be a lot more since Brianna isnt a typical developed 2 year old more like 9-12 month old, Hailey still loves to play with Brianna cuddle and kiss her (I will admit sometimes Hailey gets frustrated that Brianna doesnt know how to properly play with the toys)...

I want to hear stories about your kids and or siblings of your kids with ACC... anything "you just want to share" :)XXX HUGS

Araceli...

That is such a cute story!! How cute that Hailey says "ACCC" and she liked the book and is able to understand enough of it on her level to relate it to her own sister. What a blessing that book (ACC & Me) is.

Glad you're having such a fun Mommy bonding time with your girls.
