I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a TOTAL goofball that is MADLY in love with her husband and three boys! I am just ME! I don't pretend to be anything I am NOT! God has blessed me with a fantastic ability to BURP - A LOT and really LOUD!! - as well as a heart for youth and children's ministries! That is ME in a nutshell...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Martin Luther, my savior Jesus, anyone who shares my passion for KIDS AND CHRIST! =0) AND... I can't forget to mention... the LITTLE EINSTEINS!!!! HAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! =0P

Heroes:

My BUBBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Raising a child with autism can be emotionally draining on a parent, particularly when there is a communication delay involved. My son is almost 11 years old and autistic. He rarely says "I love you" to me or his father, always sings his favorite songs VERY LOUDLY and never speaks of what he experiences in his own little world.Despite the difficulty inherent in raising a child with autism I am convinced that any parent can find the Love in his or her Heart required to do such a task. Despite the language barriers a parent will also know that his or her Love is not being cast into a vacuum but, rather, that Love is returned and multiplied a hundred fold.Hopfully this poem is a testimony of this truth.Our children are God's greatest gift to us. No matter how they are packaged, this truth does not change. Be grateful; Love, honor, and cherish them. If your child is not perfect or what you hoped for, God has not punished, you for past deeds. He has given you an opportunity that you may not yet understand. Make the most of the situation, for you are in it for a purpose, and there are rewards, that you never imagined possible.God is faithful ! Keep the faith & trust in the Lord at all times..." HEAVENS VERY SPECIAL CHILD " (A Short Poem)A meeting was held, quite far from Earth! It's time again, for another birth. Said the Angels, to the Lord above, This special child will need much Love.His progress may be very slow, Accomplishments he may not show. And he'll require extra care From the folks he meets down there.He may not run or laugh or play, His thoughts may seem, quite far away, In many ways he won't adapt, And he'll be known as handicapped.So let's be careful where he's sent, We want his life to be content. Please Lord, find the parents who Will do a special job for you.They will not realize right away The leading role they're asked to play, But with this child sent from above Comes stronger faith and richer Love.And soon they'll know the privilege given In caring for their gift from Heaven. Their precious charge, so meek and mild,Is HEAVEN'S VERY SPECIAL CHILD...Penguin Love Designs Date: Mar 5, 2008 3:22 PM
