If you have a mom, there is nowhere you are likely to go where a prayer has not already been. ~Robert Brault

It’s 6 : 29 PM on day 506 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth,   pray, read Genesis 17 as part of my ongoing quest to learn more about the Bible,  drink tea by myself, prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature,   work,   feed myself rice and curry for lunch,   work some more, exercise, continue working, feed myself yoghurt for dinner,  brush my teeth once more   and watch TV.

As you may or may not know today is my mother’s birthday – she turns 46(mom don’t kill me LOL) – and in honour of that I would like to say thank you for giving me life, thank you for giving me Neethu and Kevin – my sister and brother(they are a little annoying at times but my life wouldn’t be the same without them)- thank you for all your prayers(I know that you pray every for me to walk and although the answer to that prayer is no know that your prayers are making a difference in my life), forgive me all my trespasses against you and please try not to worry I am going to make it in this life I promise. Are you wise enough to know that you are where you are because of the prayers of your mother?
