Seeing my son's enthusiasm for learning to play a musical instrument. It's his first year of band at Junior High and he's learning to play the trombone.

I'm happy today because I feel wonderfully liberated by telling the ugly truth. :D

I don't often have very much going well, so today was very good because I had two good things.

One, a parents who wants her child in my class told the headmaster that she will change schools if she doesn't get him into my class. She believes her son needs someone like me at school.

And at Tesco, I saw a parent whose child I used to teach a couple of years back, who is now doing his GCSEs, and she said I changed his life. I did tell her that might be a bit over the top, but she said no, it wasn't, and that he'll never forget me. She talked to me for 10 minutes, which felt uncomfortable, especially as it was completely unexpected, but I think I did okay with it anyway (the conversation, although I was at a loss for words a couple of times).

Both things really helped, because I'm having a tough time with this diagnosis, with my relationship with my daughter, and wondering about life right now, and so these two instances sort of reaffirmed that I matter to someone.

I don't mean to sound like I'm being vain -- it just made me very happy to be special to someone in this world.
