WOW!

YAY GOD!  After all my whining and moaning and praying about how I hate being home alone, God has decided to give us charge over two little ones!!  YAY!  A 6 yr old girl and a 2 yr old boy will come to live with us on Monday!  Im so excited... and wait until Miss Madi hears about this... she is going to be SOOO excited!  A sister AND a brother all at once!?!? She is going to be in heaven (until she realizes that she will have to share her precious daddy and mimi with them, lol!)

So... heres a little about them.... and I think that this is ALL God!
-The girl... we will call her a A and the boy B (for now)
  *Has ADD and ADHD and is on for meds for her conditions
  *Was possibly s*xually abused
  *Has acted out sexually
  *Is overly affectionate with men in particular
  *Is in 1st grade
  *And (best part) is in Madi's school already, so no changing of schools for this one (YAY, and Madi's school is amazing and Im so in love with this school and so glad that A will be able to go there too!)

-The boy, B
  *Is completely on track devolpmentally
  *Is a calm and well-behaved boy

SOOOOO.... I am requesting your prayers PLEASE!  We know that A will be in the same room as Madi and Madi was s*xually abused as well and we just want PURE Jesus in that room.  For there to be no acting out, and for the girls to just get a long and for all the appropriate behavior we have taught Madi to have an affect on A.  For some major healing for A and B... especially A.  They have been in care for one month and are already being moved to a new home.  So three homes in a little over a month can really mess a kid up.  We need WISDOM!  Especially for the add/adhd thing.  We beleive Madi has adhd and have avoided meds since she came to us, but we have just made the decision to put her on meds becuase we have tried all the diet things, so I will need to supreme patience and wisdom in dealing with these 2 and knowing what meds to keep A on.  It seems she is probably very drugged and I dont believe that is best for a kid.  Also pray for smooth transistions, APPROPRIATE bonding with us, and peace to reign in our home.

Feel free to pass this on... the more people praying the better... right!?!  :o) Thanks!
Oh... does anyone have any little boy bedding they could donate?  We only have girl stuff... and limited funds to purchase boy bedding!!!  We have both a crib and a bed in his room, so we can decide which would be best for him when he gets here and after talking to hs current family.  Thanks! :o)
