A little of this...A little of that


There is so much going on. I am starting to feel the stress of the next 5 weeks. I can feel it building up on my shoulders, my heart, and my attitude. I have one more day of break and then it's back to the grind of things. I have so many thoughts going on in my head so I am just going to touch on each issue that seems to be close to my heart right now...

This weekend Roger and I went back to his house. We had a wonderful time with his family, especially his brothers. We were able to spend a lot of quality time with them as we drove back and forth from the hospital. I love watching their personalities. I love how they interact together. I love when they turn on their favorite song and sing all of the words, at the top of their lungs. I just sit back and soak it all in. I couldn't love it more. I cannot wait until our kids our playing together. I just love all of them so much.

I mentioned a hospital above because we spent a large amount of time visiting Roger's Grandma Rose. She is in the ICU. It does not look promising for her. We sat and chatted with her and she does not seem the same. She talked about the ceiling falling on her and seeing children run around. She doesn't seem to know what is going on. It is really sad. We aren't sure how much longer she will make it. It is a new experience for me. I am not used to dealing with death. I am praying that if the time comes soon for Grandma Rose that I will be able to comfort Roger. Pray with me, please.

This weekend I was also able to catch up with some of my favorite people! As I piled into a very familiar minivan and was all buckled in, my sweet "sister", said to everyone, "We are all together again" Cadi knows just how to pull on my heart strings. I just love that little girl so much. It is so nice to be in good company. It doesn't matter to me if I am holding 3 different little hands walking through a dollar store, I just love being around good solid families. What a blessing!

And finally my spring break comes to an end. Tuesday I go back to school for 5 more weeks!! It is going to fly by but it is also going to be some of the hardest weeks for me. Please pray for me as I balance everything in my life. I am planning on enjoying my last day by doing a tad bit of homework and spending the day with my family. One day at a time!

I am praying my one-in-a-million girl. I am praying for everything that you mentioned here. Your fourth paragraph had me in tears. We all love you so much, and you are truly part of our family. I couldn't help but grin to myself as I watched you lead the train of children through that dollar store. "Nope she doesn't like children one bit". I thought. {grin} Love you and I am praying. Please, please call me if you need anything.
