I'm so sorry for your losses. I have just one daughter (KittyStorm) and she has one son Benjamin, and he has PDD/NOS which is like autism. He's 6yrs He's very smart and loveable until he gets something that he can't handle and then he has a melt-down which can be hard to deal with.

I am sorry for the loss of your children dave. My mom lost one baby after surgery at 6 weeks old years before I was born. I have been fortunate that way although I did have two miscarriages at 12 and 14 weeks before my first son was born. Missdancerama I don't know if you remember me telling you but I work with people with PDD, Aspergers Syndrome and Autism as well as other LD issues and developmental delays. It is a great job. My second oldest son has a mild mental handicap and a physcial disablility. His symptoms can be somewhat like Autism at times but he never was given that diagnosis.

I was a twin, I was told, delivered by caesarean section
because my twin had died months before and was preventing my delivery



As for my 'lost' children... they were found and saved were they not ?
Special-children are born to those with so much love to give
and they, were given them
because, they were especially 'equipped'
to provide the special love and devotion that these children thrive on

though there was/ is and will be TIMES, this 'cross' is perceived
there are also so many times
that the BLESSING of God, is and will be recognized

Remember .... nobody else but, the parents
can acknowledge this gift from above

God Bless all of those parents abundantly

Good morning, eagles! Well, I'm off work this week. I need to go do some productive stuff like laundry, etc. but I, of course, am taking time to "play" and see what's happening in the world of CF!!!

Hope you guys have a blessed week!

 

[gratefulgrace]

Hey playing is good Kaykay the work will still be there when your done but you may feel more energized to tackle it. I am expecting a phone call from my sister and BIL today. They will be coming over on the ferry from Vancouver Island and I have to pick them up at the downtown bus depot when they arrive. I think in a few moments I will hop to the grocery store and pick up some stuff as after they arrive they will need my car for some running around. I only have a blow up mattress for them tonight I hope it is comfortable. My hubby used it last week when he was camping as part of his jobs program with disabled adults and he said it was ok. For one maybe but two??? I hope so. gg

I've slept on inflatable mattresses with varying degrees of success. The nice thing about them is that you can deflate it gradually until it's the bouyancy most comfortable to you. Oh, and I'd hazard a guess that it's more comfortable for two if it's not a TWIN size?!

I am still waiting for the call but at least I am semi organized. I am surprised I haven't heard from them yet.

No it is a double and will likely work even so I have set up a twin 5 in thick foamie matress as a single just in case. The twin actually seems pretty fine and may work for both dependng how chummy they like to be. lol. Jan

I gotcha


I replied to a post in GE a little earlier
the system told me
that the reply I was trying to post
was a duplicate of one I had already posted [?]
and that if I clicked the button I would be redirected to it

when the page refreshed, I found myself here:

http://christianforums.com/showthread.php?t=7264934

I read the OP

and felt led to reply to it
I am afraid that I had to 'speak my mind'
and also had-to 'speak-bluntly'

whereafter, a respondent sent me a considerable gift of blessings

I that my comments, will cause serious consideration to be given
to the matters I raised there

Good Morning. Does anyone have any idea how to fix the problem with the avatars?

 

[davedajobauk]

Whoops !!!!! There went my own .... poof!!!! and it was gone

everything looked as if, it were going to show my living avatar
and after I clicked on SAVE

I just got that BOXED red X



let us be patient

THIS SITE is also having problems with REPS again


Reps: 63018065 (power: 63033)

Please be aware
that the LAST ten reps I have given > TOTAL 430
ie: 43 reps per rep-gift and NOT 63033 as is my 'repping power'

I do apologize to recipients whose totals are climbing MUCH more-slowly
than I had intended for them to grow

What, with losing my avatar today also
I guess it will be some-while yet
before these anomolies will be eradicated



dave

 

[missmsdancearama]

Thanks for the info. I finally got my avatar back

 

[davedajobauk]

Thanks for the info. I finally got my avatar back

I too have been graced with the restoration of my own
thus we proceed further up the road

[missmsdancearama]

I like your new look Dave.

 

[kaykay9.0]

The "guy who fixes avatars and the like" (Sir Adrian?)apologized for the delay. He said he had been gone several days.

 

[Worddancer]

*chuckles softly* The poor guy . . things don't always go awry when we are away, but so often is seems like it! Glad to see this feature is operational again.

And yes, Dave, it definitely threw me to see your avatar changed! I didn't recognize you at first!

 

[davedajobauk]

"laugh bellows heartily" LOL Worddancer... I am going to have-to do-something
with that LARGE SMILE
for it looks like I have red cheeks from crying and I sure havent been
