To Be A Fool…

about life, faith and the things that drive me to be foolish

M-Day

What did you do yesterday?  I went to church, and a graduation party.  I spent the rest with my kids.  Here is a peek into my family.

I braided my daughter’s hair, and she braided her sister’s

(assembly line braiding)

And my son is all about baseball and scouts.

  1. You are truly blessed!! They’re adorable. I hope you have lots of energy - looks like they can keep you busy. ;)

  2. They sure do keep me busy. :) And no, I don’t have lots of energy, so sometimes it is a challenge. But I wouldn’t trade ‘em for anything!!! Thanks.

  3. I wouldn’t think you would want to trade them - too cute.

    I spent much of my kids growing up years in bed from a lack of energy…even homeschooling from bed - it can be done, but I don’t recommend it. I’ll pray for you, it’s quite a challenge to not be able to keep up… ;)

  4. Wow… that must have been rough. I have always struggled with some health issues (thyroid and fibromyalgia) that make me fatigued and achy… but after I went to Ethiopia to get our daughter (nearly 2 years ago now) I crashed, and I have had such extreme fatigue since then that I’m down a lot. I was considering homeschooling next year, but I was thinking that with the fatigue that I couldn’t… but maybe I will reconsider.

    Thank you!

  5. Oh, it’s possible. I have fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue too. They’ve recently retested to see if it’s really MS, but no. That’s good but something neurological is occurring the doc just says they don’t have a test for it yet.

    It sure depends upon your level of fatigue - I did it for 19 years and 13 of those I was sick. They’re all in school now. I wouldn’t feel right trying to give advice…it’s such a personal decision.

    You may enjoy “Senior Eagle Finds His Wings” in my blogroll. He suffers from the same and his blog is all about finding God in the suffering. Good stuff.

    Hang in there, I’ll definitely be praying more specifically now. Blessings, Michelle.

  6. Thank you! Thank God it isn’t MS… but I wish they had better answers for you. I’ll pray for you too!

    Blessings,
