While working on our visual perception worksheets this morning, Bubs wrote on his shirt with a dry erase marker. (We use plastic covers on the worksheets so that they can be used over and over again.) If you have ever marked on your clothes with a dry erase marker, you know that it does not come out. I immediately sprayed it but knew that it was a ...
Day to Day
Looking Back
You know that list that you have of things that you want to ask God? Mine is pretty long actually. But one of the questions that I have is "why was Bubs my first born?" The reason why I wonder this is because there are so many things that I would have done differently if I would have known. I know that I have high expectations for our children, ...
Others See It Too
We spent time with family this weekend to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord. Bubs had a really good weekend. He enjoyed the time with family and all that that includes!Bubs just completed his 6th month in therapy. It was so encouraging to hear more than once "I can see a difference in Bubs." His uncle commented about how much stronger he ...
Remind me…
Yesterday was an AWFUL day for Little Bubs. Bad choice after bad choice occurred. At one point he jumped up and down screaming for 15 minutes outside trying to get control (sure glad we live in the country!!). I even tried to do a special activity, just the two of us, of making cookies to try and help curve the downward spiral. Last evening, my ...
Better
I am very thankful to say that Bubs has calmed down immensely this week. The divergent of company last weekend definitely helped. PTL!On Monday night, we took a walk as a family. It was bed time and Daddy and I wanted to get one more "lap" in. So, we explained to Bubs and Sweet Pea that we were going to walk one more time. They were supposed to ...
Full Moon Indeed
We are up to our armpits in rotten attitude and disrespectful attitude. Bubs is really struggling to stay in control and keeping his words loving. He struggled at therapy today with focus and diligent work. It has been a tough few days to say the least. Bubs continues to be very mean to his siblings at times. In some ways, I believe the ...
Here We Go Again
We knew that our "great" days weren't going to last forever. The signs showed that it would be over soon. Bubs has been waking up in the middle of the night just bawling. I truly believe he doesn't know why he is doing this but just can't stop. Bubs has been all over his little brother - just smothering him with kisses and hugs. Thirdly, Bubs has ...
Good Day
I feel embarrassed to write this for all of you who have had a bad day today. I even debated about blogging. But then I decided that I needed to tell the world how God is answering our prayers!!! Not be embarrassed because of a few good days!Bubs has had a great few days. On Saturday he struggled to stay in control but we had company and it was ...
Kisses Mommy?
You know when you have those moments with your child that you truly want to freeze time? You want to hold on to that moment and never let it go. Those of you who have kids will disabilities, you understand that those moments are even more precious.Last weekend, Bubs was introduced to butterfly kisses. These eyelash kisses were made popular about 13 ...
Transparency
Some sweet friends of ours are battling cancer right now. It is amazing how the couple who is struggling actually turns out to be the couple who is blessing everyone! One of the blessings that I have received is in reading their blog. I continue to be blessed by their strength and reliance on the Lord. But, the biggest blessing that I have ...
