ROUGH DAY!

This morning William got sick again.I took him to the doctor and we finally know what is wrong.William has viral meningitis.The doc said it will take awhile before he is back to normal as it is a rough viral illness.He prescribed lortab for the horrible headaches and phenergan for the vomiting.He said best thing for this is lots and lots of SLEEP.
I pray to see my son on the road to recovery now.He is enjoying being home and not stressing about everything now.I want him to rest and get better and back on his feet.He is a great boy... who is loving,respectful,funny and very generous and caring.He is talking taking some schooling and working a Job as well.I will support his endeavor whatever it may be.
A little news...It may be very soon we travel for Liberia.They are going to be releasing adoptions that are completed soon so we can get a visa.I am going to gather paperwork we need still this week so if we get the call all we will need is to send off our visa's and set up flight and hotel.Please PRAY its soon.I would be thrilled to have him home before thanksgiving.

MY SON IS HOME!

William was released from the hospital today! His vomiting is no more and he is able to eat now without getting sick.He still gets the headaches but they are not as bad as they was.He has moved in with us and will remain home until he can get back on his feet.
William informed me their is BLACK MOLD in his house.I did not know of this until recently.He did tell his landlord who did nothing.I looked up Black mold poisoning and Williams symptoms had matched it.I told the doctor and they refused to test him.Its a swab up the nose and they wouldn't do it.So we have a follow up with his doctor this week and i am asking him to do this test.
William has no insurance he is so stressed out about this.I have a form to finish filling out and get in mail tomorrow to help with medical bills.He will also be applying for a medical card.I hope he can get one.He has no income at all and owns nothing of value.
William has lost any belonging he had due to this Mold and is starting over.Tomorrow we are informing the landlord that William is moving out.I am angry at his his slumlord.If we get this test and it is positive... the landlord is in some serious trouble.I want this test because if he does have mold spores in his body he will keep getting sick.Right now benedryl and Motrin seem to be helping.The hospital could not pinpoint what exactly was the problem and chalked it up to a weird allergy . I am happy and relieved he is home and not 2 hrs away in a hospital bed suffering.I am sad because of the mounding debt my young 20 yr son is in now.Please pray for William as he recovers and gets back on his feet.

PRAYER NEEDED MY OLDEST SON IS SICK!

I just got home from the hospital a little bit ago.My son William is rally sick.He was complaining of dizziness and headache last Wednesday.The headache continue on and would NOT go away.Saturday he spiked a fever and began vomiting.The headache continued and worsened.He went to the doctor on Monday and the Doctor did him no good.I had him stay at our house because he was miserable sick and i wanted to care for him.Tuesday morning at 6 30 am i woke up to him on his knees on the bathroom floor in pain with his head and vomiting.
I drove him to the ER they did several test and found Nothing.The doctor was growing concerned and next step was a spinal tap to rule out meningitis.The results came back with high amount of red blood cells and protein in his spinal fluid.The doctor told me William had a brain bleed and was sending him to a hospital in Kansas city to see the neurosurgeons.William underwent an angiogram to check his brain for aneurysm's.This test came back negative so he spent the night in ICU and had an MRI today.This test was also negative.My son has nothing wrong with his brain.
He is now is a regular room but is still sick with ongoing MIGRAINE AND VOMITING.They have no clue what is wrong.I came home tonight to shower and get a nights sleep and am heading back to the Hospital.I think i know what is wrong and will let you all know once i have discussed it with his doctor in the morning.Pray my son feels better soon.I am worried sick and dont like seeing my children sick.William is stressing because he had no Insurance and is worrying sick about how he will pay for this.I am helping him fill out papers for financial aide to help with the cost.Lots of prayers needed right now.

NOT MUCH TO SHARE!

Life has been that just life as the weekend is passing.My son and his girlfriend have decided to take some time apart.Her Mom came from Missouri to pick her up.She is suffering from depression and i don't like to say this but its true.Miss spoiled princessness.She expected my son to take care of her and buy her things while she did nothing.She did not even clean the house.He was fired recently and is broke which set her into a angry mood all the time.
I had talked to her about her needing to get a job and that her and William both need to work so they could have the things they wanted in Life.She didn't listen to me at all or my son.It was spinning out of control and my son was suffering stomach aches and Migraines.
Today i was up at 6 am enjoying a cup of coffee on my deck.The kids were all still sleeping and all was quiet.My sweet husband decided to join me around 6:30 am.It was nice having that time for my husband and I to talk.With the kids and the remodels its seems we don't have that time anymore.I love setting out on my deck in the early mornings when its cool.I am just taking today to just Relax and enjoy my Landen boy.It was so hectic yesterday i didn't get to spend no time with him.Landen and I may make the 5 mile drive later out to visit my mom and dad.Just a nice relaxing day.Hope this week brings news about adoptions in Liberia and news we can go get our son.

A LITTLE NEWS IN LIBERIA THAT MAY BE A GREAT THING!

The Minister Of Justice was moved last week to another part of the Government Ministry this past week.A woman has replaced him and she does not know why adoption decisions are taking so long and is going to meet with the President.PLEASE PRAY!
This could be great news for all involved and waiting families and children.So this is the newest news i have heard.I am still waiting to hear from senator getting frustrated with it all.But am not giving up.Took them several days the last time to get back with me.
Lots and lots of thoughts and prayers!
I have to share this with you...My parents came by tonight for coffee .My dad asked whats the hold up getting our Grandson home?I told him Dad i really don't know.He said don't they see he needs to be seen by a doctor my gosh i worry he is going to get sick and you lose him.This is so amazing considering when we first mentioned we were wanting to adopt again we got allot of crap about it.I am happy my parents have came around.They get excited with every picture they see and any information they get.I LOVE IT!

MAKING A LIST!

I am making a list of what we will need when we do get to go to Liberia.
1. Paperwork....still need a letter about income and get copies of taxes.All other paperwork i have and its ready.
2. need to send off for Visa's wont do this until we get the call to travel.They are only good for 3 months.

Packing list for Jax....
for a week stay....5 pairs pjs,7 outfits, 7 pairs socks,3 blankets, one big can formula,30 diapers, box of cereal,15 conatiners of baby food (fruits), 2 playtex drop in bottles and a box of drop in liners,2 standard bottles incase he dont take the playtex ones, baby spoon. box of wipes,Baby lotion,bath,diaper ointment,powder,toothbrush and paste,Tylonol,dimatap,Masquito wipes,4 musical toys,2 soft crinkle books, a box of disposable bibs.I am not packing shoes...We will just put socks on him until we get home.
anything else you all think we will need?Or that i didnt pack enough of?The playtex bottle was a last minute thing i bought 2 of them at walmart.They would be so much easier because i throw the liners away and no washing required sense we can only use bottle water .
I also packed a front pack carrier it will be easier putting him the pack when traveling.Do you think 30 diapers will be enough?
Michael and I are packing as light as we can and i think we did a pretty good job with that.
Any ideas? i want to make sure we have what we need for Jax..i don't want to be caught without something we may need.

CANT SLEEP MIND ON JAXSON!

I cant get my mind to shutdown! I keep thinking about Jax.Michael said last night i was talking in my sleep and i told him.Honey the little one is crying we need to get him.I hear him crying.I don't remember saying this of course.
I know it takes a couple days to hear back from our senator but i am a bit impatient and sent another email to him today.I will write one everyday if i have too and call too! I want Jax home.Michael and I did talk about adopting again but these last 2 adoptions have been so emotionally hard on us we have decided our family is complete.
Please pray we hear something soon and that it wont be much longer.

CANT SLEEP!

I cant sleep!My mind is on getting Jax home so to pass some time i decided to start school clothes shopping for Landen. I love children's place and am happy to say he has all the clothes he needs now for school totalling 67.00.
The main thing he needed was jeans and he got 3 pair and 2 shirts and a cute pair of skater shoes.Landen has allot of super nice shirts so i only bought 2.Winter tops i hit a clearance rack at walmart and got several for 1.00 each.
Landen does need a winter coat!His daddy bought him a cool one in Iraq but its HUGE.So we will be checking thrift stores for a nice winter coat.
My girls are going to Colorado in early august and Their Grandma is taking them shopping.My son shops for himself...All i do is supply the money for the girls and Brian.I love when they are older and can shop for themselves.I like making a girls day to the mall and such.But generally i don't like stores and would rather do it all online.
I am not buying anymore clothes for Jax.I am afraid too!I am afraid he will or has outgrown what i have bought.So we will wait until he is home to see what fits and what we will need for him. I pray i hear something tomorrow from our Senator if not...He will be getting another email and a phone call.I am not giving up.I want my Jax home so bad! This craziness and injustice to the children of Liberia waiting to come home and praying to come home needs to come to an end.It breaks my heart to know we are so close and other families are so close and we are stuck its not fair at all.

CLEANING AND BEING A MOMMY!

Cleaning is a never ending thing here.With all the messes from the remodels sure is not helping much.Jaxson's crib is the target for messes.Everyone in this house throws stuff in it.I get upset and am constantly taking things out and putting them in the proper places.After weeks of this i said forget it.Well today is the Day i clean it out again.
This time i threatened hubby and the kids and told them they don't like stuff on their bed if one more thing gets tossed in my room in Jaxson's crib i am tossing it in the trash.Lets see if this threat holds.
As i worked on all my cleaning and chores today Landen decided he wanted a snack and was helping himself while i was cleaning out Jaxson's crib.I heard Linda say Oh Landen! He DUMPED a box of cereal all over the dining room table and floor.I guess he decided he don't want things orderly.I don't know but i stood over him and made him clean it up.Now i am the mean Mommy!
I get frustrated but Love being a mommy.So i get messes? evertything is washable right?If ya come to my house and find dumped cereal or toys strewn through the house come on in.Its signs of children and i would not change that for the world.

TAKING ACTION!

I contacted our state Senator who is also an adopting parent asking for help.I cant set and do nothing anymore while our son waits and waits because we cant get his visa.
I explained about adoptions being suspended.
I also explained the suspension took place after our son was legally adopted and that we cannot be issued a visa because the president says so.I explained that Jax is special needs and would benefit greatly with medical care we can provide.
I told him that we had flight booked and hotel booked when we were told we could NOT travel because they will not let us get a visa and explained that this was back in February 2009.I also let him know about the website stating that a child with special needs is suppose to be able to obtain a visa to come home.
This is not fair to Jax or anyone or any adopting parents.Please voice your opinions if nothing else he knows there is a situation there and maybe it will be checked into.I don't know if this will help but what do i have to lose?
Please pray with us that something good will happen for us and for ALL families and children stuck in this never ending process.

SOFT BALL COACHES AND WEEKEND

We went to Rebecca's softball tournament.I was so mad at the couch.He didn't warm the girls up before the game so it didn't start off to great.My other issue with him was he didn't play them all.My daughter played 1 inning and some girls didn't play at all.I was so angry and sad for those girls.They wanted to play not set on the bench they left very upset .
I didn't like him last year when he was assistant coach because he was so hard on them.Now that he is coaching he stinks.Their coach took this summer off coaching because she just had a baby.I hope she coaches the girls next year she is so good with those girls and they LOVE her.
They did win and have tournament game at 10;30 am.If they win that one they will several through the day last one ending at 5 pm.Rebecca told me she will go to 10;30 am and she is done.She said why stay i don't get to play?Bless her heart.
Its Amelia Earhart weekend here it started with a concert tonight called lake fest and Rodney Atkins was who was in concert.The tickets are not that pricey but we had a ball game to go to and Rebecca is more important then a concert.
Tomorrow there will be shows and vendors and rides and carnival and the most amazing fireworks display tomorrow night.We will be leaving here after Rebeccas games to join in all the fun festivities tomorrow.A dear friend and her family are coming to join us and i am so thrilled about it.I sure hope they enjoy their day.This friend has a daughter from India that my Husband got to escort home when he went to get our daughter.This Lil one was barely 2 and has cp when coming home.She is now 8 yrs old and OH so sweet and what a pretty smile she has.Her and Landen are close to each other in age and size.She has made tremendous gains and amazes me.She has really awsome parents and 3 adorable brothers.Hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday.

15 MONTHS AGO

I seen this beautiful babies picture.This was the first ones i ever saw of him.I had joined a group called Reece's Rainbow.We were wanting to adopt and knew our baby would be special needs.We new we wanted to adopt from Africa as my heart was leading me there.It came together as God had intended. There was a posting from a woman who was advocating for a little boy in Liberia who she was praying would find a family.I emailed her right away and asked for what information she had about this precious baby.She told me all she knew and said i have pictures.She emailed his pictures and i was madly in love.It was like something hit me instantly and said to me THIS IS HIM this is YOUR child.I was so excited and called Michael over to look at his picture as well.I explained that this little one has severe cerebral palsy.He looked at him and looked at me and smiled and said...Call the agency first thing in the morning this is our son.The following morning i called and talked with the agency.Of course she was concerned and had a ton of questions for me like...You know he has severe cp and cant walk or talk.Yes i know this.Do you understand he can have other medical issues?Yes i love him for who he is not what we want him to be.She proceeded with allot more questions but i knew this was our son.This little boy is on this earth for many reasons.He came into our lives for a reason.We WANT him NO MATTER WHAT.This is how it began and now 15 months later this little boy has grown so much before our eyes,Yes i am frustrated!Yes i am stressed!Yes i am sad and angry.But he is our son...And i know one day he will be home with his family who already adores and love him so much.Yes i have moments of being scared having 2 special needs little boys.But i would not CHANGE anything.This child was born in my heart 15 months ago and there is no looking back.I love him more with each passing day.I ache to hold him and tell him how much he is loved.15 Months i have stared at his pictures and watch him change through the past year.Every time i get a picture i am so happy to receive it yet so sad because he is not with his family.This little boy has waited a long time for his turn to go home to his family.Not much Longer my Jaxson Emmanuel I know God will unite us and you will have so much love and happiness this i promise you.I love you Jaxson very much and cant wait to hold you forever.

PATIENCE IS NOT MY VIRTUE


I have been trying to keep my mind busy and off not being able to bring Jaxson home right now.But the more i think about it the angrier i get.I mean we have been to court all we need is a VISA.Jax is special needs and their embassy web site says if they have sp needs they can process visas.So what the heck?I am so frustrated with it all at this point.Jax needs medical care that we can provide.That window of opportunity to see him advance is getting close to closing so yeah i am ANGRY!Please pray i get my emotions in check and start handling this better then i am at this time.I want our son home.I am seriously thinking about taking some action.

WEEKEND!

We have had a great weekend.Hannah came Friday and spent the night and went to the movies with the girls and watched ice age 3.They left Saturday evening and took Rebecca for a few days.William came this evening i Invited him to come have supper with us.Maybe getting out of his house for a bit will take his gloomy mood away.It did seem to do the trick.
Landen played hard all weekend he is such a little love bug.He has got the No head shake down to good.I told him he needed to start nodding yes more and less No's.My parents came by this evening with a HUGE watermelon and we sliced it up and ate it.Yum was it ever good.
Tomorrow 2 guys are coming to do some more work on our home so back to flying dust and banging around haha.It is going to be worth it with the end results .
I pray this is the week we hear something about going for our Jax.I would be thrilled at this point if he is home in time for Christmas.That's my goal to get him home before Christmas.Hope everyone had a great weekend.We didn't go anywhere stayed home enjoyed our kids and had a BBQ.It was a great weekend and i would not have changed a thing.

COMING ALONG!

NEW pics coming of our home addition.Its now shingled and all outer walls closed in.I have a whole in my living room wall now that the hall way going into new addition.They were going to start insulation and sheet rock today but there was a gliche.we have 16 centers and insualtion is 24.So we have to make a trip to menards and exchange insulation for 16.There wont be anywork on it tomorrow my brother inlaw is taking it off and i dont blame him.His son is in town visiting so he is spending the weekend with him.
I have been cleaning alot of dust from them tearing the wall out and window out.It playing havoc with my chronic sinus issues.I dont know what i am going to do with myself with a bathrom so huge.We have made it and the hall way handicap accessable for Jaxson.We know he will more then likely have a wheel chair and it will make things so easy this way.Also my husband will be more then likely needing a wheel chair in thenear future.
Our oldest daughter Hannah amd her fiancee are here visiting.They are at the movies with the girls tonight so all is quiet here.Hannah ans Anthony are staying the night too!I am thrilled because we dont get to see our oldest daughter very often.My oldest son could use some prayers right now.He is jobless and his bills are coming in and he is stressing out.To top it off his landlord is a slumlord and i have been arguing with him about getting a couple major things repaired for them.My son is stuck and cannot afford to move.Michael and i told william he could come do some work for us and we would pay him.He has been looking for work bless his heart and is not having the best of luck.He did file unemplyment but its only 109.00 a week.Not enough to live on.
Tomorrow i am painting Jaxson's changing table.I have put it off and it is time i get it done.I still have to sew the pad together too.I also need to finish his quilt i am making for him.All these things to do to help pass the time.I pray it is soon we can go.I am ready to hold our son.I am ready to love him and care for him.He has a grandma and grandpa who are going crazy to love on him.As my mom says..My youngest grandbaby needs to get here so i can smother him in kisses like i do my baby Landen.Landen and Jax are the youngest granbabies Jaxson will be my parents 26th grandchild so they are VERY excited.
Hope everyone has a woderful weekend.We are spending our staurday doing chores and painting changing table.Maybe later in the day take the kids swimming at the pool.

PICTURE DAY!

I recieved a new pic in my email today!Oh i want to hold him so bad and kiss his sweet cheeks.

Wednesday, July 8, 2009

THIS AND THAT

The last 3 days have been crazy!Michael has had back to back appointments at the VA and Ft.Riley.We leave early in morning and don't get home until evening time .I am exhausted from all the driving.I am so happy to say the shingles were put on the roof of our addition today it is looking so nice.
Our Teen problems is getting better its been a battle for the past 4 weeks with her.I got tough and she didn't like it and decided it was not worth losing her cell phone and being grounded for 2 weeks.She is starting to improve has 2 more days to go and she gets her cell phone back.She still has another week of grounding to get through.I got to the root of her problem so we should see a big behavior change.
Tomorrow i am spending the day catching up on Laundry.With all the days of travel and being gone it has Piled up.I also have some other chores that need to be addressed and will get them done tomorrow.Landen is enjoying his summer so much.He cracked me up today.We were coming home from Ft Riley and pulled in McDonald's drive through to get drinks.Landen in the back seat before they came on to take our order said...WELCOME TO MCDONALD'S MAY I TAKE YOUR ORDER?Then he proceeded with..I WANT A SWEET TEA.Needless to say Michael ,Rebecca and I had a laugh and when the woman came on to take our order she probably thought we were a crazy bunch of people.
Landen is such a joy to parent...He is funny with a great sense of humor.He loves to pull pranks on people like me when i am in the shower and he pulls the shower door open and runs out of the bathroom as fast as he can.He is vocalizing more and more everyday.He has came so far and i see improvements everyday.
I have no news on Jaxsons adoption it seems to be stuck somewhere but in time it will come.When i least expect it we will get to go bring him home.I am keeping plenty busy which helps with the time and the wait.I pray for him Nightly and talk about him all the time.I am doing my best to be patient and keep my sanity.

4TH OF JULY! AND SUNDAY!

Brian on his dirt bike!
Mr.Landen getting a ride on the mini bike!He tells Brian...I RIDE?

We had a wonderful 4Th of July!I got to see my nephew who i have not seen in 3 years it was great to see him.It rained a little off and on and was chilly last night.I felt so bad because i didn't pack Landen a jacket and he now has been sick today.He has had a cough but the rain and cold didn't help.My girls had a great time shooting off their fireworks and getting to spend time with their cousins.Although on our way home the girls had an argument in the car and are both now in trouble.


Landen was not in the mood for fireworks he usually likes sparklers and those party poppers that throws confetti everywhere.But he just wasn't feeling good and in the mood for it.


Today has not been a good one their is 4 of us sick today!I have sinus infection..Landen is coughing and just not feeling well.Linda has also decided to get sick.Brian is complaining of hearing loss so all of us are under the weather.


I had allot of things that i wanted to get done today and did not get it done as i slept on and off all day.I hope i am feeling better this week so i can get some things Marked off my list.Tomorrow Michael has 2 VA appointments which means an all day thing.Poor Landen gets so bored maybe we can find a park while daddy is at his appointments.

LITTLE UPDATE!

I got a bit of an update on our adoption.Please pray right now for all the families that are in process and stuck in a mess!There is still allot of problems within Liberia and adoptions.There are so many parents waiting to bring their babies home and i know their hearts are breaking as their children grow up without them and some wish to come home so much.
I am trying to be very very patient as i know that Jax is coming home.But Liberia time lines on doing things is so different then ours.I am one of those people that want to get it done and get it done now.Many prayers are needed for Liberia and the children of Liberia.It a struggle every day for all the parents.
I am sure we all do the same thing..We get on computer every day praying for any information pertaining to adoptions and our children.I am praying for each and every parent and child and Liberia to come to a decision soon so parents can be united with their families they have waited so long for.I also Pray that their will be adoptions from Liberia in the future .Please say a prayer for everyone involved and for the future of the children.
I know my Blog is private so i will share with you what i know!I keep it private for allot of reasons and hope in the future i can make it public again.So now on to what i know...I know the MOH is reviewing files of children who have been through court and are working with the Embassy to let them be united with their families.My Jax is one of these cases we were told his file needs to be reviewed by multiple Government offices before we are allowed to bring him home and obtain his Visa.I know they asked for his file and received it 4 weeks ago.
I know the UNICEF is a major problem for adoptions in Liberia and are doing anything in their power to prevent adoptions from Happening.This is sad that they would be this way..So many children have no mommies and daddy's and are going hungry and dieing by the thousands.Why would they want to stop adoptions? what is their purpose to try and do so? I don't know what their purpose is and if UNICEF is so great then why are so many children and parents dieing of Hunger and disease?They should be more into worrying about taking care of the people and children in Liberia then what is happening with adoptions.
These are just my views and my thoughts on this matter!

FRIDAY AND RAIN!

So much for work being done on the addition...Only part of the roof is on and they started working on getting the roof done when the rain came and poured and poured.So the work was ended early.The good part is the electrician is here doing some work as his is inside our home.
My family wants to go camping this weekend as we usually do every 4Th of July.But i am miserable sick i am positive it is bronchitis i have had this before and its painful and i feel yucky.I may send them out camping and i stay home.I will However spend the day at the campsite with my family on the 4Th Sick or not i need to be with my family.But staying out in the camper with my sinuses and bronchitis is not good.
No word on Jaxson's adoption i am praying everyday.I just keep on going knowing that day will come that he will be in my arms forever.I know he is well cared for so no worries there.I have children here and now who needs me and keeps my days Plenty busy.
Summer has been pretty good so far!The kids are loving summer and are keeping themselves entertained and working they like their spending money.d
I hope you all have a wonderful and safe 4Th of July.
