I feel as though God is throwing struggles at our family to see just how much we really can handle. My aunt is almost to her breaking point and I am sure if I was in her position I would have broken down by now. Starting out with the fact that my 16 year old cousin is pregnant and refuses to see past her puppy love to realize she is now forever responsible for a hmna being that is growing inside of her. My aunt has tried and tried to give this girl chances and her only response is "You just don't want to see me happy!" UUGGHHH. Then my other cousin is having to go to a neurologist for testing to see why he is having massive headaches. Another test on my poor aunt. On this side of the road I am trying to help my husband who is having symptoms he believes are related to Huntington's Disease and is going to a doctor on friday. I am praying that the Lord has not put that on our family. I am hoping that the Lord will hear the requests of this family and help us through all of these situations before someone has a meltdown.
School is coming to end and as it draws near I am confronted with the thought of Olivia getting one more year closer to the dreaded High School years. Granted she is only going into the 2nd grade things are really changing already. Arguments with Best Friends, crushes on male substitutes and what to wear the next day.
My sweet social butterfly is graciously walking into to the terrible 2's and happy to have a spotlight on her. I can already tell my future grey hairs will mostly be from her. She refused to wear a dress yesterday because it was not pretty. She is very picky about what she wears and the right shoes already and I can see where this will be headed in the future. It is not a pleasant hing for a daddy to think about especially with little practice saying no to baby blue eyes and blonde curls. We have had way to much experience with the brown puppy dog eyes but now we are in a whole other ball game.
