A very busy, very early morning. Dash to the clinic.

Early morning wake up... Got Beloveds lunch made and then an ice chest of food for the kids.
I had a 8:15 ENT appointment for Dash Hawk in the city today.
This is the replacement appointment for the anomaly problems I tried to address two months ago.
I ran into a wall of obstacle's trying to get his needs met, the Neuro balance testing that was a referral from the last ENT at the clinic fell through.
I got into the ENT that did the surgery when Dash first came home from Russia.
He has given me a referral to get dash into a Neurologist.
Dash may be having Vestibular migraines.
I took him off the Zertec and I did well to do so. The ENT said he was clear and looking good.
Dash has been allowed to not use his hearing aids at home and his speech is deteriorating a bit. So I need to push using them again. He can hear well enough at home it is at school and in crowds that he NEEDS to use them. I am trying to be kind and let him go with out at home but I think it is back firring a bit.

I had to wake these two up at 6:30 and load them straight into the car. I had already loaded juices, waters and the ice chest of lunch supplies. I grabbed breakfast cookies for them.
I hate to wake a sleeping child.
They got right up and dressed grabbed the blankets and went to the car. Good attitudes make this so much easier.
We made real good time on the freeway, I get to use the HOV (high occupant vehicles) lane and it really moved fast. We arrived down town with enough time to stop by the Phoenix Children's Hospital. I love the cafeteria there. Some Hospitals are really wonderful and cheep to purchase well made food. I was able to get Dash some scrambled egg (without milk) and two fat sausages and Dove a yogurt and a bagel. I got them two donuts for them also, all for $5.50.
I did not get anything for myself due to just short time.
As I went to set the children down to eat, Dove needed to go to the potty.
so I packed it all up and gave each kid the a rest room break. We loaded into the car and went onto St. Joe's to attend the clinic.
After the appointment we had breakfast at the snack area.
The kids are so amazing. Dove noticed that I had not purchased for myself ...without a word she handed me some of her bagel ad dash gave me a sausage. These kids are so thoughtful and sweet.

So recap...
Dash needs to get into a neurologist. Due to his 8th nerve , nerve damage he my be having vestibular migraines. He is off the Zertec and sinus is clear no ear infections.
They really wanted to come home.
So here we are.
There is no place like home:)

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"
