Sometimes you need a break before the breakthrough

Yesterday afternoon was our first virtual occupational therapy session in months. We'd taken a break because, honestly, my kiddo just wasn't having it anymore, and I was spending more time trying to wrangle him into participating than the therapist was actually doing therapy. So, yeah, we hit pause. And yesterday we came back and it wasn't perfect, but he did fine and I got to brag about his progress. I made a new plan, and sometimes the reset is actually what you need. So let yourself pause and then you can keep.
