The LORD is watching over Bailey. He has had difficulty in even the smallest thing, but on Wednesday the Lord granted some of our little prayers.
I talked with Bailey's Special Needs Coordinator and she was so excited to tell me how Bailey had done is school that day. During recess in their room the kids get out toys and games to play with. Usually Bailey just draws. Well on this particular day, he had chosen a book. Now that may sound like it's nothing but for Bailey it's big. He can't focus long enough to keep his eyes on a sentence let alone a book. See, Bailey's medication had been changed and this was the first day he had started it. But this was by no means all that Bailey had in store for us that day. Later on, the class was given an assignment to write about something in the future. Baileys work is significantly altered. So his assignment would maybe be to draw it. He decided that he was going to write like the rest of the class, and without any help, he wrote five sentences ALL BY HIS SELF. No one helped or looked over his shoulder. Normally Bailey can't write ONE sentence, but to be able to form five sentences, write them down, and use some punctuation is astounding for him. Mrs.Vickie (Special Needs Coordinator) bragged and bragged about him which is very important for him. He needs some major confidence boosting.
Bailey can relate to Psalms 23 so well
1 The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 He restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
4 Even though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house
of the LORD forever. Amen
