Well, if you have followed my story, you know that I have been having a rough go at things. For some reason, as I was getting ready for work yesterday, my daughter Lindsay came to me in the bathroom, as I was fooling with my hair.

She said,"Mommy, What if there were no Alexander or Lindsay?" These are my childrens names. It brought tears to my eyes. I told her that my life would be empty, incomplete. I would be so sad.

She sad, but there are, Mommy. I said, I know, and my life is so happy, You are the best things in my life and with you I am so happy and my heart is full...and I love you so much.

Now, I dont know what made her ask me those ??. My daughter, as posted before, has Aspergers Syndrome, and this is in the Autism Spectrum, my son was Baptised when he was 11. I never really said much to my daughter on it. I never thought she would understand it truly, until maybe adult hood.

She has always been taught about Christ and what he did for us.

Now, she goes to extended school year, just to retain last years info, so that next year she will start like new, not forgetting the things she learned....

We waited for the bus. She is 11. Mommy. Yes Lindsay. (God I love her)

I want to be Baptised. Do you know what that means? Yes Ma'am. And she told me everything! She did give her heart to Christ last year, but she was never Baptised. I melted. I did not cry, when she sees tears, she thinks of sadness. But when she got on that bus, I cried heavenly tears of joy. My baby girl knows that she wants to give her heart to Jesus.

esterday started out wonderful.. May have ended out so very terrible, but I must mark the day on how wonderful it truly was.

Robyn

This is the best thing I've read/heard all day!!!!!!!!!


Thanks for sharing, and God Bless.


"Children are the reward of the womb" . . . . "For this Child I Prayed, and the Lord Answered my Prayers" . . . . these are some of my favorites.

You are doing a wonderful job leading your children to Christ, think about that when you are down and your spirit will be uplifted, Blessings

That is so absolutely WONDERFUL! Isn't it amazing how, when so many things come our way to bring us down, God works in another way that is so amazing?! In the midst of our trials and storms, God is so faithful to give us a rainbow. What a blessing you have been given!

Yes it is, when these days are so horrible for me, it is my children that lift me, of course the Lord, but beforeme, in front of my very eyes, my children. They see my pain, unfortunetly, and they are wonderful.. they show every ounce of love in their bodies, and give forth unto me, and I recieve, and give back, with all the love in my heart. Their hugs and kisses feel so good. I love them so much more than words could even find the explanation for....
