What a Good Patient


Ella Blaire got a doctors kit for her birthday needles to say she sees a lot of nursing going on around here. Look at her very cooperative patient....Too Cute! This would be one of those blessings I was talking about.

Is this week over yet?!?!?!?

Well this is proving to be a long end to a busy week. I am last minute which is not me trying to pull things together for Ella Blaire's birthday party and pictures. Mark and I went and bought her presents tonight. The thing is we don't get to get out of the house together to much so when we do we have a long list of things to get done so it is RUSH RUSH and usually not everything is done. But all of these are things that will be OK and if they get done great and if they don't Guess What we will be alright
.
My grandfather has had a tough time this week. It is starting to come down to us having to make some decisions and sometimes there just are no easy answers. That's one of the things about caring for someone you worry that you will do what is best for them. Sometimes the choices you have are not something good and something bad to choose between. Sometimes it is this would be bad or this would be not as bad and better for them... Now choose. Neither is something you want to pick.

But back to the blessing part of caring for him. When times get rough like they have this week and we all stress out Mark and I pull closer together. Things that we would normally say to each other that would make each other upset we just say and look at each other and smile. It's called teamwork and I am glad he is on my team. People will never know how much he has done and he wouldn't want them to. But to me everything he does for my grandparents just shows how much he loves me. And for that I am thankful!!!

O.K. I guess I am a long poster... This blog thing could get me in trouble I am not a private person my life is an open book so I will have to be careful not to get to carried away on here. I will post again soon with Ella Blaire's birthday pics.

Maybe I Will Actually Post Something!




I have had this blog for almost a year now and have done one post when I started it but today I thought why not. For anybody out ther who might need to be caught up on our oh soooo exciting life here it goes.... Mark and I pretty much the same only a little more stressed and older. Delaney just turned 10 0n the 15th and Ella Blaire will be 2 on the 21st. Never wanted my kids birthdays close together but when they are 8 yrs. apart you really don't get as picky as to choose what month the 2nd one is born in. But 2 parties and gifts a week apart...Wheew! About 5 months ago my grandparents moved in with us he is very sick and disabled. I will not say it is easy by any means but I will say it has huge blessings that come with them being here every day. I am so thankful my kids get to be around them so much. And I am so thankful the lord gave me a good husband who is willing to do everything for them.
That pretty much catches you up. I'm gonna try this posting thing and we will see how it goes!?!
