Juergen went to his parents for a few days. I pray God gives him help and peace. It is not fun to watch someone you love so dearly struggle in the final period of life. Death is not pretty. You can say all you want "she is going to a better place". I will not argue with you. The transition is ugly, and the hole she is leaving is giant! We desperately need the comfort of the Holy Spirit to carry us in this very difficult time.
In the mean time, I'm the single mom to 5 children. One of them, Thomas, is a real pill. The kids are really getting into doing puzzles lately. Sarah started working on a 60 piece puzzle, and Philip on a 100 piece puzzle. Thomas talked really big, like I can do it better then anyone. Well, he is older...naturally he can. But the problem is he would not help Sarah, he wanted to take over for her. He would not help Philip because I actually think Philip can do it better then Thomas. He just made trouble. I had to send him to his room. Then I had to talk to him about not being a jerk, and working with people. He always wants to be the "best". He is so insecure. I think part of the problem is he is sad Juergen is gone. He doe not handle change so good. Some how God has got to plant this boy on a new foundation that is not so easily shaken. He has got to learn to make the best of who he is with out having to put other people down. We can all be wonderful...we are for each other...we are family.
