Hello everyone! I hope everyone is having wonderful holidays this year. I am the mother to four BEAUTIFUL sweet angels. 2 of my children are special needs. My oldest Raven (10) has a genetic disorder called Ecto Dermal Dysplasia and it causes a lot of problems for her. The big factor in that is that she can't sweat. My 9 year old Hayley is globally delayed and the doctor said that there may be some mental retardation there. When I look at her I don't see that at all, I see a funny, bright, beautiful little girl that is trying EXTRA hard to make it. I have my only son Dylan who is age 6 and just the sweetest most caring little boy ever. And finally my red headed miss bossy 4 year old Brianna... she is my baby. I got married last year after being in an abusive relationship for 6 years. (about time I know) I married a wonderful man who is struggling to make his ready made family work. He has had a hard time with finding long term work and we were even evicted once. But the main reason I am writing this, is that I want my babies to have a nice Christmas this year. We were able to do it last year, but my husband has been out of work for most of this year. We are just barely staying housed and warm with food. So Christmas looks none existant this year. I have tried my local social organizations but they can't help or their not doing that this year, or they did their applications in early October. I pray that I find something for them, I can't stand to see them dissappointed after all these strong little soldiers have been through in their short lives. I am willing to do anything at this point short of joining the maifia! LOL! Thank you for anything you can do or tell me. Blessings upon you and Have a wonderful Christmas season!
