Oh...how long this list could be! What a week it has been! Last week I stepped on something and it became inbedded in my foot. After x-rays and cat scans they found nothing THANK GOD because I was one step away from having foot surgery! The doc cut around in my foot for two day about 1 1/2 hours each time. NOT FUN!!!!When she stuck the knife in I said "hmmm that would have really hurt if my foot was not deadend hugh??" DUH!!!!! After the two days of diggin around I was so sore I could not tell what was soreness or pain from an object. Well...she mus have gotten the thing out the second day of digging because the pain sstarted to change to soreness but I can not even tell you how painful it was. It is on the ball of my foot up near where the big toe and ball of the foot meet. BAD PLACE for a mom chasing three kids. I went back and the cut was deap and pretty wide so she stitched me up last Monday WITHOUT DEADENING ME!!!! I shoved my whole fist in my mouth and explained I was NOT responsible for what came flying out of my mouth! I can truly say I have toughened up over the years. Short...thnakful no foot surgery.
......thankful for my sweet and loving husband. We celebrated "9" years together last week and had a great anniversary. He took the week off and we sent the kids away for two days. We ran errands, ate at fun places and saw Dan In Real Life AWESOME movie! He surprised me with an awesome bracelet I was NOT expecting and I will show it off to whoever will look at it BECAUSE he did it himself! Michael is truly the greatest husband, best friend, dad and the best comic relief a girl could ask for. He is the spiritual leader of this household and his walk with Jesus is an awesome example for me and our kids. He loves witnessing and never fears calling people on the carpet (in an amazing non-judgemental way) that has them reevaluating where they are in thier life and walk with Christ! He never gives up and is constantly asking people to come to church with us even when the answer is usually no..he never gives up on being the feet of Christ to them! What a lesson for our children and me!
....I am beyond thankful for my kids. God has given me a spirited bunch to teach me much and keep me forever on my toes. It is never boring around here and yes someone is usually sick!! (They have moved up Caden's new tube/adnoid out surgery to next week PRAISE GOD for that. It is time for him to get good cleaned out ears!) Taylor is so creative and to intuitve for me to handle on a good day...Jacob is so loving and has a heart as big as the house. he also has a love for helping me around the house. We are both very anal in how things should be placed and decorated problem: we have different visions on how things should be therefore ALOT of butting heads. Caden.....WOW!!!!!!!! Words can not even begin to express how thankful I am God put it on my heart to have this little guy. He is truly the calm in our day we like to say "he just kicks it". You never know where you will find him but I promise he will be smiling when you do. I am thnakful that this time last year I was an itching machine and God healed my liver and brought Caden to us safely and in His time (mine would have been at about 30 weeks).
....I am thankful for amazing parents and grandparents we have! Please pray for my dad he got some distrubing results last week and we were told it is either cancer or a shadow cell. pray for shadow cell. I truly can not imagine life without my dad. This has hit me hard. We have always been extremly close and I am truly a daddy's girl. As most of you know he is my call-in babysitter on a given day you will find him here helping me out. I could not function without him! I know God is holding us firm in his hands durning this waiting game. He goes back in Tuesday for more testing!
....for my sweet friends..all of you who listen to me rant and rave (you know I do). You live me and laugh with me ALL the time. Life would be so boring without each of you to help lighten the load of our crazy lives. I love each of you so very much and treasure you more than you could ever know!
MOST OF ALL>>>>>I am thankful for Jesus's mercifulness and forgiveness. For His intervention so many times this past year. If you know our family you know how much he interveened in miraculous ways. I love that he knows every fiber of my being and loves me anyway! I am so looking forward to this holiday season upon us. To remember God's ultimate sacrifice for us and to share that beautiful story of long ago with my kids!!!!!
Oh I forgot...we are a family thankful for an Aggie win! Sorry Dad!
