Hi Mom!

Isaac is off track this month, which means, he has no school. He is on year round.

My parents and I met in Sacramento today so that they could have him until Thanksgiving. We are going there for the holiday.

Now......listen...

I cannot put my finger on it, but for the past year, everytime Isaac goes to sleepover at someone's house, he calls me really late in the evening. Do I have too much hold on him? He cries and sounds well, just out of sorts on the phone. I tell him that everything is AOK and that I love him, and he says goodbye. He does make it through the night, but WHY does he do this?

Now......listen....

My parents live over five hours away. I just received a call from him...

Isaac: Hi mom
Me: Hi honey
Isaac: How are you
Me: Let me talk to Grandma
Grandma: Hello
Me: He does this
Grandma: It will be ok

Isaac gets back on the phone.

Isaac: Hi mom (tears and shallow breathing)
Me: Take a deep breath son. You are ok. You will get through this and I love you. Go cuddle with Grandpa or Grandma. Everything will be ok.
Isaac: OK
Me: I love you sweetie
Isaac: I love you too

UGH! It breaks my heart to receive that call, but he has to work through this. What better time then now.

Lord? Please give peace to my/YOUR son?

Another note...

Iris cried on the way home. She misses her brother. I cried too. This is the first time we have been apart, EVER, for more than one day (sleepovers.)

Another note...

Iris is watching the new Ice Age Movie and cracking up. I am having fun watching her over the movie. She has such a beautiful laugh!

Thank you Lord,for my children.
