Happenings and Grattitudes:

Four weeks ago, today, I had foot surgery and have been layed up since. It has been difficult the past couple of weeks because I am feeling much better and want to be up doing something. I have  been very obedient to my doctor. I layed in bed three weeks with my foot elevated and have spent the last week in our recliner with my foot elevated. I see my doctor on Thursday to have my hard cast removed and will then start therapy and begin wearing my walking boot. Honestly, this cast can't come off soon enough. This has been very difficult for my family with my husband being down as well. I must say that he has taken such good care of me even though he is in terrible pain himself. The hardest part for me other than the first week of pain has been to see my house so messy. It is never perfectly clean, but it is usually picked up and decent. We started school a couple weeks after my surgery. It has gone well provided the circumstances.

 

Even though our life has been CRAZIER this past month, we have been blessed. I cannot express the GRATTITUDE I have for our church family. We had meals brought to our house on a daily basis for over three weeks. We have people driving James and I back and forth to doctor appointments. We have people running errands for us and picking up our girls for church. We have people grocery shopping for us. You see my point. WE ARE BLESSED!!!!!!!! But, the most important part is that I have had people praying for me and my family. That itself has been our greatest blessing.
