Sundays in Church

We try to take Juanre to Church but sometimes it is very difficult for us. She doesn't sit still. But since the beginning if this year we went to Church and amazingly she sat still for about 1 hour. Then she starts to pull her brothers hair. Or put het finger in her fathers nose, ears or mouth which is very frustrating. It also disturbs the other people for then she starts so laugh very load, oooeeee and then comes the stare. Everybody close to us stares at her. I hate it. Then I take the car keys and very quietly Juanre and I leave the sermon while preacher is preaching and she sits in the car. It is like her comfort zone. I then go back to the church and try to listen what the preacher is preaching at the same time I am worried about Juanre in the car, but she is more than fine, she sits there drinking her water and playing with her beads which she makes braclets of.

But Yesterdag she was so angry and annoying she cried from 12 o'clock until 9 o'clock that evening. I nearly run away. All about the dam cartoon Tom and Jerry which we do not want her to look at because the she gets that funny look in her eyes and she just want to hit us or scratch us but in a way that she wants to hurt us. I gave her the meds that usually makes her calm but not this time she was like never before. Like Crazy. After 21:00 I eventually gave her Stopain and she fell asleep. Lourens and I we were so tired of all this emotional stress. Yesterdays my father was 3 years with the Lord. And it was 3 years that Lord gave Juanre back to us. After that operation where she nearly died, due to dr's error.

On a lighter note.

Ruben can make coffee he can make scrabbled eggs and baked eggs, toast bread. He can even make french fries (chips) so yesterday we asked him to make us some coffee after breakfast, he puts in the coffee and the sugar, but then the kettle was a bit to heavy for him, so he yelled: "Daddy come!"
Which Lourens replied: " Your brother will help you. "
Ruben then said: "No! Not Lourenssss! you daddy you."
Lourens snr said: "Mommy and I are talking an you can do it."
Ruben then came to the door which led to our veranda were we sat and said: "I quit! "

We laughed so it was so adorable.

Well there is really never a dull moment in our house.

2013 New Year New Challanges but with the Lord Jesus we can do anything.

Yes, here we are in 2013.

We had a lovely holiday. We worked very hard on the farm and it was very hot some days even 47 degrees Celsius. The aircon worked overtime. But thank the Lord Juanre did not had 1 epileptic seizure. Then we went to Three Rivers Vereeniging the help my brother sorting out his house. He still can't get over my dad's death.

We went to our Church and Juanre sat the whole 1 1/2 hour still. We were amazed, now we are back home and she had a little seizure n Friday in her bed. Tomorrow the school starts for the new year.
