Ryan is a very systematic child... If that makes sense! He loves to know everything that is going on, not in an intrusive way, but he feels safer in his mind with this knowledge. I must say, from my point of view, as his mom, I don't always receive this so well. We have implemented a few things in our home to lessen his uncertainties and to lessen my frustration. One of these things is a fabulous magnetic calendar on the fridge. It is a dry erase surface and the weeks are each separated so you can put it down to the next week once the top one has passed. I find it funny that even though this is in the kitchen, and everything is written on it, Ryan will still put things in his calendar in his room, the one in his email account, and make sure to have the emails sent to me reminding me of EACH thing on the calendar on a daily basis- through email! I honestly don't even know how he set it up to do that,but slowly I can see how God has created each of us differently and for His plans and purpose. Ryan is a much more peaceful boy when he has an understanding of what is going on :) so, as his mom, and by God's wisdom and strength, I will do what I can to help!
Isaiah 26:3 says
3 You will keep in perfect peace
those whose minds are steadfast,
because they trust in you.
The more we know God and trust Him, the more we will stay in perfect peace, I suppose it's that way with my boy as well, learning to trust ...
