Why was She so worried looking?


She was looking in a small pool for her father who was maybe 8 feet from her! I was only 10 feet from her sitting in a chair looking right at her. She is really afraid. We have not left either with a care giver I cant and don't ever hire baby sitters ever!

When she was six I was in a car accident where a man hit me doing 120 mpr he fell asleep at the wheel and I was at a stop light. I have also had seven surgeries and due to my head injury many challenges. When we went to get Dash she was 3, she stayed with the folks and she was afraid then because we were in life threatening danger as Americans in Russia 3 weeks after the troupes went into Afghanistan (after the towers came down) . We were gone two weeks. This kid had it hard. Dash also came home critically malnourished like Dove. He also had two surgeries within 6 months.

My Dove has a Panic disorder due to her Sensor Integration Disorder. She has a hard time with her since of self in space, If she were to lay on a bed she free floats we once had to use weights to help her to not scream. She screamed every night for years we were able to get her some medicated help. I don't like giving my daughter Prozac, but it is letting her be more normal. I saddens me though. If I take her off it is bad news. She no longer suffers from a the Attachment deficit (3 years of successful hard work), but she has horrible abandonment fears. My dove came home from a Russian orphanage at 7 months , she had not been touched, because of this she has Nero pathway damage or a lack of proper transmissions, isn't she beautiful. Her spirit is so amazingly kind and generous. She is thoughtful. What we have do most is to keep her safe. She has a Social Cognitive Dysfunction that makes her very vulnerable to bullies an she is VERY naive (she is 10 going on 4-8). She also has a memory function problem, visual tracking difficulties that hinder her greatly. These make parenting hard because she always forgets what you tell her and then really feels bad about herself. She has an average intelligence so she knows something is not right with her and it really bugs her that her body wont do what she wants it too.
We have to constantly remember her heart although she is a kid and all kids do kid things her challenges make her needs and our need to act and not re-act imperative.

May God always bless precious little dove, keeping her in my prayers.

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
