Sometimes things can be so difficult to figure out.  I’m so glad we have the Lord to lean on and direct us on the paths we take in life.  I so glad for the Holy Spirit’s leading and prompting too! Sometimes you just get that GUT feeling…… you KNOW something isn’t right or you get that PEACE and you just KNOW it is right! I think things can be so tough when you get bombarded with information on every side.  Every view.  and you can just be on information OVERLOAD.  That can be tough!  As parents trying so hard to do the RIGHT thing for your child, it can be tough to just be STILL and listen for God’s leading, and not just do what everyone else did with their child.  Its great to have godly counsel, the Bible, and the Holy Spirit.

I feel like lately we’ve been doing that so much with Adam.  Getting bombarded with so much information or opinions.  Oh he’s such a sweet boy.  Really truly he is! I’m loving what I’m learning and seeing how we can make things better for him.  We are praying that next year he will get to start off 5th grade much better than his 4th grade year.  Its been a tough one for sure!

I have seriously been looking into the K12 online school for him.  I know who would be his “teacher” that we would meet once a week.  However, after researching and thinking, praying and doing a lot of talking to other people, I’m not so sure this will be the right path for Adam.  I think you need to be pretty self motivated to get things done and stay on task.  It sounds pretty neat and I like that its FREE and I wouldn’t have to plan out lessons and stuff.  However, I’m not feeling this would be best for Adam.  However, I’m not completely saying no to this idea either.  So, decided to set up a meeting with Mrs. Rutland (she would be his 5th grade teacher next year).  We are going to dinner on Thursday.  I’m basically gonna lay out the details of Adam and see if accommodations can be made for his schooling next year.  Brian and I would like to keep him in FCA as this is been a good place for him this year (emotionally, and friend wise) and we love the class size too.  We have also sent in a letter to the district requesting an IEP or 504 plan for Adam.  However, due to the time of year, it wouldn’t be set up until into his 5th grade year.  So, I want to go ahead and try to get a plan in place to help him to start out the 5th grade year.  Praying for a peaceful meeting and clear direction after Thursday!

We met with his new psychiatrist again today to discuss his new medication. I’ve been keeping very good notes for two weeks (some good things and other not so good things).  We are going to switch to a different kind this weekend.  I understand it takes the right combination and different things for different kids and since Adam is dealing with two different brain conditions it makes it difficult to figure it out sometimes. We are also setting up a time to meet with a counselor.  He’s willing to counsel at no cost and he is here in Fillmore.  He’s actually a worship pastor of a church here.Excited about that too.  Brian and I will meet with him first. 

Already seeing some improvements in Adam with some of the accommodations we are doing for homework and studying for tests as well.  I think a combination of several things are really going to help him and HOPEFULLY we get it all sorted through before next school year!

My Mom prayed for a miracle with him  just last week and yesterday was a miraculous day.  We could say ADAM was back.  It was so awesome.  God has a way of showing himself and even if it was just for a short time….. God is good and we will continue to pray that God heals Adam and will help him through this tough time.

 Just gonna keep layin’ it at his feet.
