I feel so terrible! I have so many friends that blog daily even twice a day! I just can't get with the program here! Bad me! LOL
Well school is in full swing. All three children are reading now. Josiah is still having a hard time but I know he will get it down soon! The girls love reading the American Girl books. Yes, they are only 6 and read well enough for them! They don't have many trouble with the words. Joanna enjoys reading through the bible and copying down verses. She thinks it is fun! Julia enjoys sitting down and doing her own math problems, for fun. LOL I truly have amazing girls. They LOVE learning. Josiah does too but he would rather be outside like any boy! He really is into building lately. I have thought about asking his Grandpa if he might be willing to take time with him once a month or twice a month and build something with him. He needs to learn how to use tools and Daddy can't really teach him right now. He is doing what the LORD needs him to do. Besides I think Siah and Grandpa time would be a special thing for him and for Grandpa!
The little guys are doing great. Gabriel is up and walking. I just can't believe it. It goes way too fast for me. Uriah will be 3 years old in Feb. NO WAY!!! He is starting to potty train. I don't believe in pushing it so we are taking it on him time table. Today he kept taking off the diaper every time he wet so we will see. PRAYING!!!!!
Right now the little guys and myself have a nasty cold but tis just a cold. This too shall pass. Uriah's issues seem to be summed up in just a dairy issue. We really think that what happened was that since he had the c-diff for so long, a year, it just ruined his system. The first problem to happen is that the villi get damaged. Well the villi are the little fingers in your small intestines that take care of picking up nutrients and stuff. Can't remember how to explain it totally. Anyway on the very tip of those villi is what absorbs or handles the dairy enzymes and protiens. Well if those have suffered damage of any kind the first thing to go is dairy! So we are praying that his will heal in time and eventually he will be fine on dairy, but this does not always happen. He seems to do ok when no dairy at all is in him. So I am just extra extra careful!!!
Next thing to deal with is my health. I can not remember if I had posted or not. I know it has been a very long time. I was pregnant, due in Jan. I lost the baby. We named her Faith. It was a hard time but a time of growth in my faith. The LORD surely does know what we need. I must trust in him. I am praying for a nother baby girl though. Through losing Faith we discovered that I have Lupus to some degree. There is also some GI issues going on. I have an appt this week with my new doctor. I look forward to finding out what is wrong with me and getting Mommy all better to be able to raise these sweet blessing for the LORD. I am truly blessed. I do look forward to having more children should the LORD allow it to happen.
Well I am cold now, and I am tired. I have finally stopped sneezing for now so I am going to sneak into the room (Gabe is sleeping in there) and get some sleep! I will really try hard to keep up with my blog. I should be able to sit down nightly and update at least a little. Pray for me to be better at this. LOL
Good Night!
