Back to Organization

I don't really know how time flies by so quickly but it does. So many times I've set down and planned to log on to this blog and update everyone on everything. Things have been crazy...

Well, we survived summer. Not an easy task with every two weeks dropping your child off to who knows what for two weeks. All I can say in everything, "I'm so very glad that I have God in my life".

Cameron and Breanna started school. Breanna is in Kindergarten and Cameron is in the 5th grade. This is something I can't believe. These babies of mine just ain't babies anymore. They both love Daisy Elementary. Breanna is in Ms. Bishop's class and has about 20 classmates. She is really thriving and making friends, but of course with her chatty personality we really didn't think that would be a problem. Cameron has adjusted so well, he has three teachers, Ms. Grant, Ms. Hamrick and Mr. Lillie. He has become very social and if anyone know how he has suffered his whole life with socializing well you know what a blessing this is. He has overcome behavior issues it seems. Thankfully we have great luck with his medication and don't have to switch around a lot. He actually loves school and doesn't like to miss. His short term memory issues have landed him in detention a few times since he can't remember to turn in his homework. But you got to let your children know if they have any handicaps that society doesn't give them slack and they have to figure out a way to over come them. Problem is that he likes detention, it really isn't a punishment. He is also involved in after school Math tutoring with Ms. Grant.

Breanna is about to go to her eye doctor and check on that blind vision of hers. It is so sad to think of how bad her eyes are. I pray that as she matures her eyes change for the better.

Cameron is now seeing a psychiatrist and even though I had very negative issues it has turned out to be a positive experience. The stereotype isn't always correct and if you tell the doctors what you expect and how you plan to stay in control and only do what you are comfortable with they do listen...or maybe I got lucky like I always have. Funny how God looks after you and sends the right doctors in your path if that is what you pray for. It also amazes me that when you step up and tell the doctors exactly what your religious beliefs are that they are willing to share theirs and pray with you and for you. That in itself is awesome to me.

Well we have just survived the Swine Flu. Cameron had a bad case of it last Wednesday and had a headache through the entire time. After thinking he had Encephalitis and ruling out Meningitis, we now know that he suffers from severe migraines (something he may have gotten from me). At least we know and we can control it. Of course we have spent nearly $500 in a matter of 2 week on medicine not only looking forward to a doctor bill and an emergency room visit bill. Oh well!

Breanna goes on her first Field Trip tomorrow to the 911 Center, Police and Fire Departments. She is so funny. As a matter of fact this week Kevin and her were driving in the car and she said that they have to say the Pledge of Allegiance everyday and she is really getting tired of it, of course she recites it wonderfully. Anyway she went on to talk about the moment of silence and said that it was really hard. Kevin and I had to really laugh at that because we figure it must be the hardest part of her day. She is always talking, singing and role playing in her room, car, shower, you name it. So funny.

Well keep you fingers crossed that I can get on track and keep this up. Yep, I'm going to set an alarm on my cell phone to remind me to do this. Lots of things to report about coming up. Breanna's special birthday dinner at Logan's tomorrow night, the double birthday celebration for Breanna and Cameron Saturday, along with a quick visit to a fall festival that morning. Sunday is the Spaghetti Supper fundraiser for Winterfest and then we get a week off for Fall Break, which will include Cameron's special birthday dinner at Ichiban. All this and plus another addition to the family Christopher will be here.

Speaking of additions, we had one dog run off. Yep, Chloe was the only dog I ever knew that would climb out of the fence, run around and come back when she had made the day of it. Well one day she left and never came back. Of course we still have Mojo and Opie and now we added Dobie another dachshund. We just love those little wienies.
