No, I'd Rather Stay in Bed...
There are times, I get so overwelmed, depressed really and well...I'd rather stay in bed.
Like this past week when Jonathan's teacher called and said, "He scored 3% on his MAP test for reading and is struggling in math too." It's all so overwelming and I'd rather stay in bed!
I jumped on the phone and had him signed up for many tests within a day of calling. Let me tell you, that is NOT an easy task! It's all so overwelming and again, I'd rather be in bed!
We are having him tested for ADD, Autism (Aspergers), and a learning disability. It's all so overwelming and well...I'd rather stay in bed!
We have changed his diet and are now a (mostly) gluten-free and dairy-free family! Cookbooks from the library, blogs, recipe sites, grocery stores, friends with recipes...it's all so overwelming and well...I'd rather stay in bed!
Psychology appointments, chats with teachers, meetings with the school social worker, filling out paper work...it's all so overwelming and well...you know, I'd rather stay in bed!
Hearing him talk about being lonely, having trouble reading, having no friends, crying because he doesn't want to go to school, throwing fits and acting impulsively...you guessed it, it's all so overwelming and I'd rather stay in bed!
So, if you think of Jonathan and his struggles with relationships and school, please pray for him. If you think of Aaron and I and how our hearts are breaking because our son is having difficulties, please pray for us. Because, well, it's all so overwelming and I'd rather stay in bed!
