I'm Tired...

I don't need a nap....although one would be nice....I mean that mentally I'm drained...emotionally I still have some breathing room but mentally I am spent. Today sitting at lunch with my good good friend L and K, we were talking about celiac disease and what it would mean if Lane does have it....how hard life would be and what kind of diet it would mean for our family...and then my phone rang "Ms. Skaggs this is Nurse Lori from school, Lane has pink eye and needs picked up as soon as possible" *sigh* so Todd went and picked up my sweet pink eyed friend and I set up an appointment for him with Dr C this afternoon to get him on meds...and then at 2:35 Ethan's speech therapist called...his little ear hurt him today and she wanted me to know first hand, and ask where we stood on that. So at 2:43 I called Todd to have him set up an appointment with Dr C to have E's ears checked. Shortly after that Dayton Children's called to set up an appointment for Lane Michael's testing for Celiac. I'm tired. I can advocate for my children and go to Dr.s appointments but something has to break for these boys....I do believe my family is working towards a peaceful spirit and I think maybe I should pray with them at night before bed for a peaceful spirit and to accept the things in our life which we can not change, for patience, wisdom and above all else God's will be done in our lives.

Ethan often does our before dinner prayer, he has (over the last few months) started ending his prayer "in Jesus' name, Amen" I don't know where he learned this but I appreciate that he listens when others pray. He says his prayers more diligently than most children his age and enjoys prayer and I appreciate that. My boys have a bright future waiting for them...
