I have had depressing family drama happen over the weekend. Well, we will start with last wednesday. I was told by my 3 year olds Awana coordinator that I need to attend awana's to help him join in on the routine of activities. Um, he is 3 and on the go 24/7. I don't really understand because he is doing his Bear Hugs (awana book) and bringing home projects he did. What is he not participating in? She said that the kids were stepping on him because they were singing and he was laying on the floor. Um, he is 3. They want them to start 2 years before they start kindergarden. I plan on starting when he is 5. I will have to wait and see if he is ready then or not when he is closer to that time. So, I will have to miss bible study and see what the deal is this week. Like I said, I didn't really understand what he was doing wrong, except for act like a 3 year old. Maybe most of the kids start when they are 4, I don't know. We will see on wednesday!
And then on friday, My husband and I dropped off my boys at a family members home and saw that some roommates were smoking tobacco out of a huka. This is not something I need my 11 and 3 year old seeing. Come to find out, there is a lot more going on. I am so depressed that I had to make the decision to not allow my kids at their home anymore. Sometimes I feel that we as Christians are given a certain heightened common sense. I know my husband and I have made the right decision. I have cried so much about this. Family is so important and it has hurt me deeply. When I talked to one of the people involved they said that I was being ignorant and childish about the situation and then continued to laugh at me. WHAT! I didn't even know what to say to that. I just cried. The family member in-charge of this household said "I will talk to them", Not, "Oh no, this is not going to continue in my home".
I am at a loss for words........
Please Lord give me strength. I need you to guide me through this hurt and confusion. Thank You Lord.
