Our Journey with Attention Deficit Disorder
Okay, here I am stepping out of the closet. What has maybe been the closet of Manny's whole life, wondering about how to organize his impulses. Attempting to understand, yet offering him a continual steady embrace.
I didn't want to write about this, it's not easy. But this blog is really for him, for my kids, a document of their young years. This time when they are Christ's direct-instruments of humility and struggle in my life. The time in which they grow into the fullness of who they are, may I stay out of their way. And also, may I try to walk with them with some strength, some leadership.
As always, there's a lot on the planning-plate around here. But this book about organizing for an ADD household is consuming my thoughts and I continually pray this verse from Ps.121, "I look up to the mountains--does my help come from there? My help comes from the LORD, who made the heavens and the earth! He will not let you stumble and fall; the one who watches over you will not sleep."
