Ready.... set.... go! Haven't found the right guy, but I can visualize!

You're still writing awesome poems... nice to see ya again!

howdy doody.... did I win yet?

I see you there
In the crevices of my mind
The man who stands strong
The one I long to find

Handsome and caring
Honest and true
Opens up doors
Knows just what to do

Down to earth and honest
Compassionate and sincere
Yup I can visualize you
As I sit down in prayer

Faithful, hardworking...
Full of laughter
Waiting like me
To make a new chapter.

Prayers sent! God bless!

I am truly hoping that God will help me provide for my son with Down syndrome. My ex cut the child support for the past two weeks. My mom went into hospital in June... then to nursing home, and then by July 4th she was home, July 6th my stepdad went in to hospital and now they are saying dementia with psychotic episodes. My little boy needs surgery in september and my life feels like a bad dream at this point. Praying for God's best. Lease is up on Oct 1 and I have no clue what I will do. My mom just was in a car accident yesterday and of course she is afraid to ask for my help cus I am in such a bad position. She is still weak and can't even drive to see her husband in the hospital. I've been through some trials, but this is certainly testing my strength.

Angels whispering
A soothing melody
Through the tall pines
On a fragrant summer breeze

Angels dancing
In the starlit night tonight
Fascinating just to lie here
In the darkness of the night

Casting shadows
Bellowed clouds rolling by
I wish I could just lie my head
On that huge pillow in the sky

Angel kisses
I feel them everywhere
As the dew begins to set
Landing in my hair

What a blessing
To be witness of such things
A gorgeous night, a soft cool breeze
The thoughts that gladness brings

Nine pm and he's in bed
My silly little sleepy head
Dressed in blue from head to toe
As I tucked him into bed

He's just a little guy
Who came and stole my heart
Sticky kisses, dirt covered hands
We rarely are apart

Chorus...

Ohhhh down syndrome baby
Heart with two holes
Life sure is gravey
As your smile mends the souls

Down syndrome baby
You're so perfect to me
I can't imagine life alone
So we'll make our own history

Picking up all the toys
Finding finger prints galore
How does he make such amess
A trail of toys right to the door

Always laughing as he goes
Leaving a trail to and fro
He grabs attention in all he does
Only one thing you ought to know

My Down syndrome baby
Born with such a great ability
He should be a reminder
We are what we want to be

Focus on the blessings
For each day isn't guaranteed
Live life to the fullest
This is what my sleepy head taught me

chorus...

Ohhhh down syndrome baby
Heart with two holes
Life sure is gravey
As your smile mends the souls

Down syndrome baby
You're so perfect to me
I can't imagine life alone
So we'll make our own history

eileena... you are so right... noah doesn't need the added stress since I believe he's gone through enough.

I took noah to the ears, nose, and throat specialist and he said that we should go for a sleep study, and he is sending us to a children's hospital because noah had heart surgery for two holes in his heart. He is also going to do a hearing test in a month to check his hearing since Noah has had frequent ear infections. I continue to pray for the very best.

I've been separated for nine months and I am raising a special needs little boy, and my eighteen year old son who is still in high school. I had to move right after my husband and I separated. I have talked to a counselor, and invested my time in going to church and Sunday school offers a little me time plus I am able to meet other people and get a support system. Having a support system is certainly very helpful. I am also taking online college classes and working from home. I totally understand how hard it can seem when the rug is pulled out from beneath you, but the best advice I can offer is give yourself time to let the dust settle. Focus on what 'you' can do instead of what she isn't doing. Time heals all so just take it one day at a time, otherwise you become overwhelmed.
I wish you the very best. hang in there... it will get better!

I GOT AN EMAIL FROM NOAH'S FATHER SAYING HE IS DROPPING THE CUSTODY SUITE. I AM COUNTING ON MY ATTORNEY TO HELP ME THROUGH THIS.

PRAYERS ARE ON THEIR WAY FOR YOUR BROTHER AND YOUR FAMILY.

Well appointment time is nearly here for my son who has down syndrome. We are seeing an ears, nose, and throat specialist to have his ears check, but mostly for his low oxygen leven when he sleeps. Doc had mentioned possibly getting his tonsils out to help. The poor guy has had a rough winter with runny noses and ear infections. April 1st is our appointment.

plus to make life more interesting my husband filed for a divorce and SHARED custody of my son. Right now he has supervised visitation based on me choosing to pull back on his visitation after he drove 60 mph with noah in the front seat of an f150 and he was swerving around traffic and noah threw up. Between that and then lying to me about Noah's health... i did what i felt was best. It's been a long, hard road and i am praying for Noah's best interests above all else. There was abuse in the marriage, oh he threatened my family and my counselor through me though. my 18 y.o. son heard a few threats, but i just wonder if justice will be served since my attorney told me that because my husband went to anger management then he should be fine with my son. he's been in and out of counseling many, many times. i just want to protect my special needs son.

hiddy ho good neighbors!
