Shaky times, but we overcome

For the last two weeks I have been at home taking a break from supply teaching as my youngest son was a bit clingy, having trouble going to sleep etc. I will always put the needs of my children first! Its a tough decision as money is so important to function isn't it :-) BUT I know my sons' security comes first! I tend to forget what he has been through....left his country, family friends...lost a beloved granny, moved house TWICE and started a new school AGAIN! I feel guilty about having put him through all this....poor little thing! BUT God is good...ALL the time! I have prayed for the fears and insecurities to leave him and God has been faithful! Travis is once more the happy, settled boy he was until two weeks ago. AND he has been blessed with a very good friend, who is coming to play after school! Sorry for rambling on :-)) but a mothers' heart is broken for her children when they suffer!

My eldest son, Christopher, is doing well and making friends in school and at church.He was the one I was more worried about, ironically, as he is more reserved than his brother.Oh well, just proves we are NEVER in control of anything! Thats' why I just have to rely on Gods' help ALL THE TIME!!

I am so happy that things are back to normal and I have been fortunate to find work at a special needs school! It is a dream come true for me ! It will no doubt challenge me!

I am loving our new town! I have new friends too and though my heart still aches for South Africa ,  Chesham is becoming home for me and my brood!

This is my "baby" and I sharing a special moment!
