Searching for answers
August 22nd, 2007 by Jenni
I’ve just spent a bunch of time on line tonight looking for answers. Eamon has had a hard month or two. His behavior is just plain grumpy pretty much all of his waking hours. I’m not sure what to do with him. I discipline but I know it goes much deeper than a discipline issue. I really think he’s allergic to something, probably either food or possibly hay fever? Anyone had any experience with hay fever in children? I’m going to make an appointment with the naturopath and hopefully she will be able to help me. I’m at my wits end with him, we just want our cheerful boy back :( Poor guy. He’s always been pretty emotional but these last few weeks have been pretty awful. Please pray with us that the Lord gives us wisdom to know what to do and where to find the answers we are looking for. Good night.
Hi Jenni. So sorry Eamon’s been bummin. How old is he again? (I can’t even keep track of my own!) Has he been sick or had any recent sickness/injury stuff? We’re becoming identified this sunday…I hope you guys are coming?! We’ll pray tonight for little Eamon boy!

Poor Eamon! Could he be getting some back molars that are taking a long time to come in? Or maybe a persistent ear infection? I know that sometimes when my little ones are in pain they can’t communicate it properly and just end up being really grouchy. Or could he be having a delayed difficult adjustment to the birth of his newest sister? Sometimes more sensitive kids have more trouble adjusting to changes that other kids hardly notice.
Anyway, I’ll be praying for Eamon and your family! Keep us posted!
