Alexander....

and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.



Did you ever read the book?

I loved it when I was a little girl...

and it totally applies to my day.


Hunter has suddenly decided to have major attitude (you can refer to the last post for some insight into this).

Today was TERRIBLE...

Direct disobedience, screaming, whining, kicking, and tantrums. Lovely.

I think we disciplined Hunter more today than we have in his entire life.

It was really REALLY tough.

I had a HORRIBLE migraine. Knocked me out. Serious hallucinations and everything.
(All the while, Hunter cried, jumped, poked, and hit me)

Then we found out my grandpa had a bad fall today (NO GOOD) and is in the hospital. Lots going on with him. So much so that I don't even have the energy to write about it right now...he is in a lot of pain (VERY BAD)...

we would really appreciate your prayers for him tonight and in the next few days.

And on top of all of it, Ryan and Kendra leave for Boston on Sunday. While we are all so happy that he is qualifying for the study, it is still very nerve-racking. My sister said it best, "Yeah! Ryan doesn't have to have open heart surgery! ...He just has to have an experimental, non-government approved, life threatening procedure done!" We are trusting the Lord and believing all will be well but it still weighs heavy.

Needing some refreshment...energy...encouragement...wisdom...hope...

and SLEEP.
