Praise God for Jesus raising from the tomb on the 3rd day. Now we have hope... For Jesus is "ALIVE"

Pray , Pray & Pray again!

Just wanted to ask all u prayer warriors out there to pray for something...Jason & I have EVERYTHING in order to build a house. Plans, a lot, etc.(except for selling our house)....However, we want to make sure that its the Lords will for us to build not just our will. Please pray for us that God will lead & guide us & give us a sign as to which way to proceed with this. Even if its not meant to b then were OK with that ...What ever is in his will & best for our family. And no were not building a bigger house just a one level instead of split foyer. We have a budget and as all u S.A.H.M know u cant go over that budget. SO we want be paying anymore out than we r now...I hope u all have a great week...Remember to thank God for all the blessings he has given u & for just allowing us to spend another day on his earth.

Trials

Well the Psychologist cant see Alex to start his evaluation until April 29Th so pray that we can be on our best behavior until then. He is such a precious loving boy & I love him more that life, but his anger has to go! He was pretty good today & last night he even let Jason give him a bath. He usually pitches a fit if Jason even comes in the bathroom while he is in the tub. He thinks Mommy has to do EVERYTHING for him. So anyway, the Bible says in (James1:2-4) Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. Maybe that's what Gods teaching me, to depend on & trust in him more. So that my Faith will be stronger. I guess I just need to be thankful I have a beautiful, healthy boy who I can love & hold each & everyday. Some people would give anything to have a child or even a healthy child. Well guess that's all for now. May all of u grow closer to God through each of ur trials. Look to them as JOY(boy that's hard) At least were still alive to experience them.
Have a good night!

Love,

Just pray for me & my little man that God will interveine & give the doc all the answers & knowledge he needs to help Alex. Hope u have a great day! Oh our church is doing its Easter Drama on Sat night & sunday Mornig if anyone is interested in coming. I promise it will be worth ur time.

Prayer

Well, its Sunday & it all starts over tomorrow. The weekly schedules/routine is here once again & I dread it. Alex is going through something that I cant figure out & don't understand. Its very emotional for all of us. For the last 3 days I have vomited every time I ate because my nerves. I stayed on the couch the majority of the day because I was So sick. I am emotionally drained from all of this. The tantrums, crying till he throws up or his nose bleeds, screaming at the top of his lungs, I don't know what 2 do any more. I feel helpless. I'm sure someone is thinking"Spank his Butt"..Well guess what , I have! We have spanked, taken things away, done time out, got down to his level & calmly explained things & even done a reward chart but NOTHING works. So I'm calling his doc tomorrow to make sure nothing is going on with him that the Doc needs to know about. He will not go to sleep until I do. He goes to bed , but keeps his self up till I go to bed. SO I'm hopping that sleep deprivation is the cause of all this nonsense.

In the mean while please pray for me & Alex & our family because this is tough. He cried for 30 min during church today which is so not like him. So pray, pray , pray for God to handle this situation. I love my family & cant stand for there to be so much stress & tension in the air. I dread Jason going back to work because I at least have a back up. Alex still acts up when Jason is at home but I can walk away and let someone else handle him for a min. When its just me I end up loosing my cool & screaming at Alex which is not good. So once again, pray for us as soon as u read this PLEASE! I will update on what the doc says. Oh, I also applied for Super Nanny, I'm serious, I did!
