1) A Riveting Video
This is so incredibly interesting to me...if you're tending to look "up" more these days, as in you're watching for the return of Christ, you may be interested in this, too. It's a little intense, probably not for little ones??? Enjoy, and keep watch!
2) Do Your Kids Have Challenges? Watch This!
As I was cleaning out the shelves and cabinets this week (getting organized for full start of school on Monday), I came across a CD that I had purchased at my state homeschool convention in June. The singer/songwriter's name is David Michael Carrillo...he is a pastor, speaker, and singer, and also carries the "title" of ADHD.
Neither of my sons are ADHD, but both have challenges in their lives, pretty big ones. Bryan could probably be "labeled" ADD (no hyperactivity)...it's what led us into homeschooling, initially; but the reality is that he is, as I like to put it, "wonderfully and wildly dyslexic." It leads to some information processing issues, and affects his communication somewhat. He has worked very hard to learn how to deal with this challenge, and has come a long way.
Nathan, my 16 y.o., was diagnosed at the tender age of 4 with type 1 diabetes. He has been insulin dependent since that day, and the challenges he faces are pretty darn big. I'll share more of his story in another post (or series of posts) later on...for now, just wanted to say that although neither of my sons deal with ADHD, as does DM Carrillo, his music has still touched me very deeply.
I wanted to share this song with you all...David Micheal wrote it about himself, and his mother. I hope it blesses you as much as it did us...especially if any of your children struggle with feeling "different" because of a special need.
May God Bless you today!
