Too Funny of It

Sunday morning.

Enjoying the fire and the funny joke.

Lisbeth boarding the van for her ride back home with her helper.

Lisbeth was in good spirits on Sunday morning after her sleepover, and even did a funny joke. And one thing that is always stuck in her brain (Lis-ism) is that she gets her allowance for the week on Sundays! It's great that she is making her own money now with sales from her Etsy shop - we can stop calling her money an allowance, and start calling it a paycheck! More ways of being a very real grown-up!

Lisbeth's Blue Bird Angels Mandala

My daughter Lisbeth suffered a traumatic brain injury when she contracted a viral illness in 1988 at the age of six, and she continues to be challenged by multiple difficulties including uncontrolled seizures, behavioral disturbances, learning disabilities and developmental delay. Despite these challenges, Lisbeth's mighty spirit and creativity are remarkably intact. She creates extraordinarily beautiful cut paper snowflakes - hundreds of them (it is ironic that a cluster of seizures is called a "flurry...") and like real snowflakes, each one is unique. Lisbeth sometimes refers to her creations as "brains," which is poignant, for in the making of each snowflake/mandala, it is as if she is recreating her brain. Lisbeth sees figures, animals, and objects in the cutout shapes of each one of her designs, and says that these are what the brain is thinking!
