Hugs and blessings for your nephew. I remember reading about his brothers and how important it was for them to get attention too. It's hard to keep things well rounded when there's so much required by one sibling, but it sounds like you have things under control.Becky Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02838039117495392777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2039902759635153354.post-73272103074361249582012-09-28T10:43:29.724-06:002012-09-28T10:43:29.724-06:00God's economy is definitely an upside down loo...God's economy is definitely an upside down look at the world - love those who hurt you, be last so you can be first. But one of His principles isn't upside down - hard work leads to success. Sometimes I don't want to do the hard work required but He sustains me through it and eventually I see His results.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17886093879851123261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2039902759635153354.post-39460522768784128392012-09-28T04:13:06.531-06:002012-09-28T04:13:06.531-06:00What an interesting way to put it.

I'm fortunate enough to have a good family and set of friends to help. We all pitch in. I couldn't imagine how things would be for them if it were any other way. Her older son's/my nephews would get little attention. That would be a hard life for them.An Apel a Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05409392467947270395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2039902759635153354.post-38256219459432742222012-09-27T08:17:13.786-06:002012-09-27T08:17:13.786-06:00And...don't we all need lifting up at one time...And...don't we all need lifting up at one time or another?

I find that I have always been like piggy 3 and helping those in need, even when I feel they could have done things differently to help their own situation. There are times I feel like giving up, but I hate letting anyone down. I will think back on this post the next time that happens and I'm sure it will give me the strength to push through and help those in need.
