Hi! We're feeling a little down in the dumps today. Just some things going on. Or not going on. We tried to keep Jr/St High youth group going, but we weren't able to, so today we decided to end it. It's sad that our church has come to a time when we have no youth group. There will be no VBS this summer. Small churches everywhere are going through the same thing.
Then there's our own problems. The twins have no friends. There are no kids in our town. There are none in the church. And no, We won't send them to public school just so they'll have friends. I don't know what the answer is to this problem, but I feel like we need to find one.
Then of course there's our girl. We're still trying to find answers for her too. Nothing seems to be easy around here. So when you say a prayer, please remember us.

I had a blog, years ago, where I shared things that were going on in our family. In our journey with the twins. I quit it because some people were upset about my content, although nothing I said was a lie. I'm writing this one now because I need an outlet for my thoughts and feelings. Basically the same reason I'm writing this one.
Our life with the twins has never been easy. They came to us with problems. Problems we have worked on and overcome. Then new ones come along. Right now our daughter is having issues. Is it Autism? I don't know. I can't seen to find the answers I need to help her. I've been letting it get me down. I tend to get melancholy anyway. She's a sweet girl, a good girl, and it's hard to see her go through the twins she's going through. I want answers. I want her to be well. All I've ever wanted for the twin's is for them to grow up to be good, responsible adults, able to live good lives.
I've been depressed about this, but yesterday I woke up and everything was different. It's like God told me to just love her through it and she will be ok. For a long time I've been living in the past. Going over and over all the things in the last alnost 15 years that have happened. I realize that's not helpful, to me or them. So I'm praying that I'm done with it. I want to be in the present.
