Antonio does suffer so much at times but he always has a smile on his face and a very positive outlook thru it all. He is a true inspiration to us all in our home. We love him dearly. Your Molly went thru so much as well. Bless their hearts. My Carolyn with her FAS will never be able to live on her own because of her daily poor decisions in so many safety areas. She is a gem and we love her so much but needs daily guidance to stay safe. She is very gullible and strangers do not scare her at all. She would go with anyone if they simply said they were a christian! We plan for her to live here supervised by us unless she were to ever marry to a very special young man who would guide her. :) Some of "B"'s behaviors might be teeth related. It would be nice for him to be able to settle down and concentrate on things in life. Think before making bad choices in his behavior. I am encouraged lately as I am seeing some improvement as he matures. You saw in Elizabeth's face that she was in time out and allowed to read in bed for it. Bless her heart she does struggle with her actions and behavior. She and "B" are my hardest. But I love them both so much and am not giving up on them. They are going to get loved, guided and mothered whether they like it or not!! I too think I hear Tim or a visitor when Zeke speaks lately in another room. He is growing into such a young man and his hormones have done a number on his emotions lately. He will also be spending his adult life here with us. He seems to be stuck at four years old cognitively. I love that age! Yes!!! My baby is looking so much like a huge toddler! Today I went in to get her up from her nap and she was sitting in her crib! I have no idea how she was able to get from the laying down position into a sit as her arms are so weak but Glory to God she did it somehow!!! Thank you for always being here for us. To encourage and pray for us. It means so much. Give all the children my love! Praying for you always!

You must be so prou...Oh my so much wonderful news!!<br />You must be so proud of Stephen!<br /><br />My daughter Molly had Botox, it made her even tighter!! That's when we knew something was more wrong with her than CP. And we found out it was a severe gentetic form of Freiderichs Ataxia. Baclifin did nothing too. She was never as happy as Antonio, but I can't imagine how she endured that ever increasing tightness until Jesus rescued her.<br /><br />We finally got our health insurance so I can take Faith (14) to our mental health FAS clininc. I'm excited and sad. She is like your B, very smart, but just can't rationalize on her own in situations that we all have to or we get in trouble. And they don't blow us off and act out "on purpose". sigh. Loving them is hard and wonderful at the same time!<br /><br />Maybe b's teeth are causing behaviors? I recently had 2 abscessed teeth that did not even hurt, but it drained my energy, caused swollen neck lymph nodes and I knew I was sick but it took 2 years to figure it out! Of course a dental visit might have helped but without tooth pain I tend not to go! But my Dr had no idea why I did not feel well!<br /><br />I can see in Elizabeth's beautiful face her struggles too. My heart aches for her, I wish I could reach in and (((HUG))) her!. :o)<br /><br />How cute that Zeke's voice is changing already! When all of my boys got their men voices I always thought I heard Tom in the house! LOL! I'd say "What is Dad doing here?" And it would be one of the older boys! LOL! Your "big" boys are all so handsome!!<br /><br />I did NOT even recognize baby K!!!! When I read baby K I thought- where is she! Oh my goodness God is SO GOOD!! Look at that girl go!!<br />I enjoyed this so much! <br />(((((((((((BIG HUGS))))))))))) to all!<br />Love-Love-Love hearing news from you all!<br />elizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16376096667336921796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863955725879655827.post-57994084032301497252015-03-14T20:55:07.037-07:002015-03-14T20:55:07.037-07:00What a wonderful update.

Since your kids have disabilities, excluding Antonio, I would imagine it is beneficial for them to work with the young fosters, mostly as an emotional thing. Is that so?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
