Happy Friday to you! You’ve arrived just in time for today’s read aloud for parents of kids with special needs. Today’s episode in the Different Dream vlog series comes from the diagnosis section of A Different Dream for My Child. It is entitled Your Dreams Change.

In this installment you’ll hear from my friends Doug and Brenda. They share how their dreams for their children changed when their son was diagnosed with special needs and later their daughter was, too. So get a cup of coffee if you like and then enjoy!

A Dream and a Prayer

A Dream and a Prayer

school kids

I dreamed of you last night,
Three students who graced my teaching days.
Last night, a decade after the last good-byes
Of my final class of children faded away.

Why now?
My sleep-drugged brain wondered.
Out of all the students
Why these three?

The first question I could answer.
After a day of writing a mystery novel
With a elementary teacher solving crimes,
School was on my mind.

But why these students?
I can not answer, though a reason there must be.
So I whispered a groggy prayer to the One who knows,
Then fell into a dreamless, restful sleep.
