Father’s day weekend

 The weekend was full, just full.

Saturday we went to a free showing of Madagascar 3, then to a baby shower. I felt bad for the mom of the baby shower since no one listned to waht she actually wanted. They played the games she didn’t want, and did things the way she wanted without thought to what she liked. It broke my heart, because this mom is awesome, and truly deserves to people in her life that listen to her. She really doens’t ask for much but from my perspective they let her down.

I hope I can spend some time with her soon.

My dad come over on Saturday and he got his present. A flying lesson, and we had a fire outside and sat around talking and eating smores. It was nice. Travis enjoyed the time as well.

My mom is sick again, and gasping for air it is horrible to watch. The doctors have seemed to give up because they don’t know what is wrong. It is frustrating to know that medical science is out of answers, but the body hasn’t given up so she is suffering. i hate watching her suffer so much. How does a loving God allow this? One of my huge stumbling blocks. In my baptist upbringing I was always told that she was being punished for some sin she continues to commit. Although I can’t see how that is true.

Her mind is also slipping. She told my dad his present like an anxious 4 year old before he opened it. Things like this just seem to happen more and more often.; She doesn’t remember so many things now, and just is not with it. It is happening so much now, it is hard to even talk to her. 

Wow how did I get onto that tangent. It creeps in some days.

 

Father’s day was interesting, we tried to go to lunch. Long story short we were kicked out of the resturant for allowing Samara and Sabastian to eat food from my purse while waiting (think baby food) There’s a first for everything it seems. We have been there in the past and never had an issue. So we left. 

We went to another resturant which was gracious and allowed them eat what they wanted, and had an amazing time. I sent them a very nice letter telling them how apperciative we were. 

We came home took a long nap, it was wonderful.

Then we took pictures for the senate subcommitte on personal. They are meeting this week to detirmine how to vote on the appeal to allow kids with autism to have aba under tricare. They wanted pictures to make it harder to say no to families when you can see their face so our is sent and on its way. 

 

My brother is now a fire eater, and it pretty good at it. I tried taking pictures for his web page, but am still trying to get the settings on my camera correct. It is a fun challange. He wants to share with churches his testomony while putting on a fire eating show…

It is pretty awesome but scary because it is my brother. 

Today and tomorrow I am hoping is quieter or something. I need it. 

Next week is horse camp for samara which means it will just be me and baby man and I for one am thrilled!

Whomever has tried to explain someone’s illness as being their “punishment” for some area of sin in their lives is using a different Bible than the ones I read…couldn’t be further from what’s actually recorded there when Christ explained that belief away as a form of being superstitious…. 🙁

Oh yeah, sorry to hear about the shower not living up to what it should have for this young lady…. 🙁

I’ve never heard of it. I was wondering if it was a large chain, I’d complain!

Its a shame about your mom… and again… I have to agree that this is a stumbling block for me. Did I sin and that is why my child is being punished because what SIN could my not even 2 year old commit?! And they told me to wean. Now. :S

I am so sorry about your mom, honey. I cannot believe that a loving God would punish someone like that. Seems a bit like overkill, to be made to suffer like that. Personally, I believe that awful things happen to good people sometimes, for NO good reason at all. We humans just tend to try to put reason to this disorder, and so we convince ourselves that it is a punishment for some wrongdoing and we therefore deserve it and must endure it.

Repeating what common said, that is so far from the truth about illness and sin. Horse camp sounds like so much fun for Samara! Enjoy your time with Sabastian.
