Through Him ALL things are possible!!!!!

Praise be to God!!!!!!! We just received progress reports and Trevor is doing AWESOME!!! Last year he struggled and with his autism, was labeled learning disabled.
Five years ago, I went through mediation with wcpss, during which I was told that Trevor would never perform on grade level. In their eyes, I was pursuing services for my child that he would "never benefit from." They were asking me as his mother to give up and surrender to the idea of what they thought he would be.
I knew in my heart that God had a different plan!! I found comfort in knowing that He is the creator and is in total control! I have also been blessed with lots of friends who have encouraged me along the way!
Three years ago God blessed me with a husband who embraced me and my children and was willing to love them as his own. Realizing Trevor's needs, he knew we had to get him out of public school. All the members of Trevor's IEP team thought we were making a huge mistake and that we weren't be realistic. We prayed for wisdom and God opened the door for us at a wonderful christian school and it has been a blessing to our entire family!!!
Monday the kids progress reports came home and I am more than happy to announce that Trevor, our autistic son, the one which all hope was lost (according to the "professionals") is making A's and B's at his new school!
I know that God is glorified in everything and in this I am ecspecially humbled!!! It reminds me that God IS in total control and has a plan and purpose for us all. It also helps me remember that nothing is too hard for God!

Why I Blog?

I am asking myself this very question as I try to set up my new blog. Several years ago, my friend Nicole asked me to create a blog so people could keep up with what was new in my life. She encouraged me to get a myspace account (we won't mention how that turned out) and then facebook. I wasn't sure if all 5 of my friends would be interested in reading about me and my family on my blog but I started one anyway.

After thinking about it and consulting my spiritual advisor, Amber:-) I realized that I might share something that can be helpful to someone else or to myself. I struggle with daily thoughts and actions that are definitely not glorifying God and I'm sure I'm not alone. So I guess I blog to share my struggles and triumphs with those who care to read about them.
