Okay, an addendum to my last post . . .
Did I mention that it is not even 9 am and Ruthie is dressed, bed made, breakfast eaten, kitchen chore done, day chore done and school done??????!!!!!!!!!
This has NEVER happened.
Yesterday, she refused to do school and finished her chore FINALLY at dinner time!
Praise God! My heart is rejoicing.
In Christ, Laura

so based on what I've been reading about what you are dealing with, do you praise her for all of that? it has to be so confusing for you...
Praise God!
Rejoicing with you!
Yea! Thats great!
I so hope this lasts! Surely if she has another setback, it will only be temporary, and not last too long. I hope we can squeeze in a phone call soon!
YIPPEE!!!
Laura,
I am so blessed to read this. You are dealing with so much, and the breakthrough is so wonderful to read as it unfolds!!!!!!! I see definite resemblances in our little girl, although not as extreme. What an eye-opener it is to read your examples of Ruthie's behaviour! Thank you for being so transparent. I'm sure it makes you feel vulnerable, but it has helped me a whole lot in knowing how to deal w/ the same sort of stuff!
Would love to meet you in person.
Rachel
