A wise man’s heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish man’s heart directs him toward the left.

We’re still here and very busy. I tend to shut down during stressful times. We took Kiel to the orthopedic dr 2 weeks ago for his kyphosis. His curvature isn’t too bad yet, but we’ll be doing X-Rays twice a year to keep an eye on it. We went today to the neurologist and didn’t get to the true heart of anything other than to finally get the ball rolling on finding out what makes Kiel tick, and tick, and tick. She mentioned some medication, but we chose to wait on that until we talk with a clinical phycologist. Anyone have any reccomendations on one of those? We were just given a list of some in the area, and that’s not the best way to find a doctor in my opinion!
Jackson’s got football practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays 6-8. Kiel just decided that he’d like to play football also, and his practices are Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays 5:45-8. I don’t anticipate breathing anytime soon! Did I mention that I’ve also got a float to decorate for Jackson’s team? It has to be ready for the 4th!
Someone, Please sleep for me!!!

The post below has really gotten me thinking about The Sheep and The Goats, so I thought I’d go ahead and put the whole passage up here.
The Sheep and the Goats
31″When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. 32All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
34″Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37″Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40″The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.’
41″Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’
44″They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’
45″He will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
46″Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Expect the Best, Plan for the Worst
Posted by mom23wildboys under Kiel, school, school lunches[3] Comments
That is the attitude we had with the start of the school year with Kiel. Except for the fact that I wouldn’t allow myself to even think about the worst. This kid’s been thru too much already!
We should have planned better for the worst. Brian and I found out Tuesday that a few kids have been taking Kiel’s lunch. We found this out when he had to tell us why he came home from school with only one bi-liner. Thankfully we have a great principal and Kiel will not have to worry about being bullied by this boy again. Unfortunately, it looks like we’re going to have to be the ones to pay for the replacement mouthpiece.
I pray that today goes better for Kiel.
