Yellow AGAIN!!! Gideon got in ANOTHER fight today. Allegedly, he hit a boy after he pushed him...then the other boy threw a stick at him and cut him on the face and neck (it sounds horrible and for his mother, it is horrible, but the cut does not look life threatening...PTL!) Honestly, I am at a loss. I need wisdom. I need encouragement. Gideon needs...I have no idea what Gideon needs! We need your prayers!!!
On a more positive note, Harold's Clothing Store is going out of business!!! I am sad for poor Harold, but secretly rejoicing that they are slashing prices when both Keith and I so desperately need clothes!!! After I picked Gideon up from school, got the low down on the yellow clippy, cried, told Gideon how disappointed I was in him, I went SHOPPING!!! I normally do not drowned my sorrows with a trip to the Mall, especially in our current financial situation, but Harold's is going out of business and I have no winter clothes (I am currently wearing a sweater I bought in 1997 that sooo badly needs to be retired!!!) I spent 2 hours at Harold's Outlet (I had no idea there was a Harold's Outlet less than 10 miles away!!!) and bought 4 skirts and 3 sweaters and spent less than $150!!!

Luke went through that the first month school started and what seemed to help was praying with him on the couch before we left.
I also have been praying over him while he sleeps. He seems calmer and not so quick to react when things don't go his way with his friends.
We're praying for you and for Gideon.
We have struggles with Curtis, too. He's usually all right at pre-K, but at home he can be a bear. Christ is teaching me that my reaction can be a trigger or stabilizer. Thankfully, Curtis is quite verbal and will say when he is angry or hurt. Still, that doesn't always diminish his aggressiveness. I will pray that our Father will guide you through these tumultuous times. His grace is sufficient.
