It’s been ages since I updated our family blog. I suck.
I guess there’s no excuse but I was overwhelmed with things and my health, but it’s all good now! **I took off the ‘sign in’ for the blog. Please feel free to share with the family. :)
March 29th, I had a hysterectomy. Mom and Dad came down and prayed for me and visited. THANK YOU so much. It is awesome how amazing our God is. I had major blood loss during surgery and it turned out okay but it could have gone so much worse, had it not been for all your prayers. So thank you…we won’t go into thinking how bad it could have gone – but instead focus on the goodness of our God.
I have been doing well. I’m still recovering and taking it one day at a time but I guess there’s not much to complain about. The kids have been awesome at helping me and taking care of me. This of course, does not mean I am not stubborn and want to do things for myself. I’ve always been that way i guess. :) LITTLE MISS INDEPENDENT! :) There are times though when you simply must accept the help given by friends and family. AND for them I am truly grateful.
The second week of my recovery Mrs. C (Gramma) came by each night with a delicious home cooked meal. Talk about gratefulness!!!! It was a Godsend and such a blessing to have that help. I was exhausted and it made it so much easier knowing I didn’t have to cook – and the kids didn’t have to eat Ravioli or Alphagetti every night. (teehee).
Today, the weather is superb. I wish I could be outside jogging. I don’t know why, but I have a hunger to start jogging. As soon as the doctor says I can start to exercise I am so on it. Ever since I quit smoking, I have tonnes of energy!!
So…been so long since I posted, there’s a lot to show you!
First of all, Jory got glasses a few weeks ago. He looks so trendy and boyish. Can you believe how much older he is looking these days?? I even notice that manly jaw line! (ACK!!)
Kayla and Jer broke up. I know life is sad…but unfortunately, heartbreak is part of it. Who needs boys anyways? :) (wink wink)
Maybe now she can focus on her artwork!!? Look at this amazing art she drew for Art Class. (Hand drawn with pencil crayons). AMAZING or what??????? That’s my beautiful girl!! (Who is getting so big lately!)
I’m going to try to keep regular updates on the blog from now on. I have a few ideas on how to organize different things like recipes and stuff…so keep watching.
In meantime, here are a few scrappy projects I’ve done and didn’t share yet. :) ENJOY…and much love.
