Oh ladies I am in need of some prayers for the virtue of tolerance big time right now . I am overtired watching baby Evan , new job etc. never mind a bit of PMS but I'm truely content with our lives etc. at this point in time .
However at 2pm this aft. the doorbell rang , dogs bark  who is it I think I'm upset its woken Evan up from our nap which we both really needed 
I open the door it is child age 14yo who we have not seen in over 2 yrs and the last time was the same thing just showing up on our door .
This chi;ld and his family lived down our street when Indigo was 5 renting a house . step dad was creepy now of course I know why as he was absuing the kids especially this boy in a bad way .
his mum broke up with the guy several times and finially 3 yrs ago for good but she is so messed up etc. moving all the time .
so here he is on our door step his mum has taken off to ON and left him with a couple here .Meanwhile he is supposed to be in school and skipping .
Ok this kid has been labeled in and out the school system has him with autism / aspergers , adhd and who knows what else .
So the school isn't watching him and no one else is .
I know we've given shelter to over 5 children over the yrs no one wanted or cared for for free .
I just don't have the energy for this . I'm annoyed when I say people won't deal with thier stuff this is what I am talking about .Then they complain thier lives are not good or they go off to india looking for a guru while ditching thier kids .
I know we live in a very high disfunctional area .Yes I know this also goes on in more wealthier areas too but here it is a very high rate etc.
I need tolerance and acceptance of others not dealing with thier stuff and making stupid choices I know .
If this kid comes back tomorrow I'll have to send him away but where ? the system is failing this family etc.
I personally good not give a hoot about the mum .I mean I know why she runs I know her fear but its the kids who suffer in the end .
This kid rea;;y thinks every bad thing that happened to thier family is his fault because he is labeled bad . I'm like well thats strange because so far all 3 boys are labeled bad , passed off from home to home but mum can just take off whenever she likes .
Oh yes much prayer please . Be still my heart dear Lord please .Roxie

I will pray for this little boy and his Mother.
What a sad situation, unfortunalty we live in a very mixed up and lost world.
This kind of thing breaks my heart.
Praying also that you find peace and strength to deal with this in what ever way you can.

Oh Roxie - praying for your peace! and for the virtue of tolerance here as you requested, and also some heroic patience for you!
Also, praying for this child, his mother, his entire family, but especially this child whom God has directed to your path again.
God give you wisdom and a calm heart. Many hugs
