No matter what happens, no matter how challenging life is I will never give up.. Posted from WordPress for Android via Fascinate

We are really in need of prayers right now. Gavin is very manic right now and has been really struggling which effects everyone. Lizze is really struggling with her fibro and other health related issues. Emmett John has been regressing lately and that terrifies us both. The car is completely broken and we are trying to secure a loan to get it fixed. That isn't going very well. Things are just falling apart all around me and I can't seem to get anything done right. The last thing in the world I needed today was AEP showing up at my door to collect the bill or shut off our power. That has pretty much tapped us out for now. I just can't seem to get ahead of the curve anymore.…

We had a surprise party for my dad this afternoon. One of the very rare time we take all the kids out at the same time. It went pretty well and the kids had fun but are completely overstimulated. It's going to be a very long night.

So we decided to go visit my Grandmother in Y-Town that we simply don't see enough of. After a brief visit do in part to the time and status of the kids we made our way home. We make it into Alliance and the transmission seized up.  Next thing we know the car no longer moves and every ounce of transmission fluid is in the street. The kids are freaking out.   I had to call the police to come sit behind us until the tow truck came. Lizze counted over 100 cars that passed us by without offering to help us at least get out of the middle of the busy road. We did however, get cussed out a few times. Long story short the transmission is shot and needs to…

So as an update to the Fit for Autism challenge we are back at it. The whole house has been sick for the last 2 weeks but no doing better. Lizze, Emmett John, Gavin and I walked the track. Elliott Richard had school this morning and Gavin had off. Lizze and Mr. Emmett John walked 1.5 miles before he got distracted by the playground. Gavin and I walked 3 miles this morning. Remember every little bit helps. If you are interrested in joing the Fit for Autism team chck out the Fit for Autism tab at the top of this page.  We would love to have you. So far everyone has contributed almost 300 miles total. Amazing. Posted from WordPress for Android via Epic 4G

As you may be aware we are parents to 3 special needs kids. The most challanging being Gavin. He wasnt doing well in the public school system at all. Summit Acadmey has changed his life for the better. They are a local charter school for special needs kids having ADHD to Autism and more. The are very accessible to even lower income families (like mine). The problem with being a charter school is funding. As tution is VERY low per year teachers pay for everything out of pocket unless the Parent Teacher Org can help out. Lizze is in charge of the PTO and so we are trying some new things to help the amazing teachers out. We are looking to get the individual classrooms "adopted" by individuals or businesses.…

Gavin has been doing well. However, Gavin is once again manic. We need to have bloodwork done to check his levels and see where he is. He is also demenstrating loss of motor control again as well. He cannot stand still or be still. His arms and hands and legs are everywhere. He is talking more now then he ever has and it's about nothing. He is talking because he cannot stop himself. Hopefully we get the bloodwork back today and things can be adjusted for the weekend. Posted from WordPress for Android via Epic 4G

Emmett John moved the couch (by himself) all the way over to the door. Then climbed up and unlocked the front door to try to let himself out... What the heck an I supposed to do with that? Posted from WordPress for Android via Epic 4G
