Sad, Sentimental and Sweet

Chicken Pox, Rotavirus, end of school activities, the approaching wedding, long hours at the hospital and little sleep have made me very weepy this week. It seems the littlest thing can make me cry. Here are some of the sad, sentimental, and sweet moments of the week bringing me to tears...

The mean lady in the Children's parking lot yelling at me for not being able to repark her Miata in the spot next to mine because I pulled in too soon. Can you believe some people?

The singing chaplain coming to cheer up Jordan and I with Jordan's favorite song "Bubble, Bubble, Bubble." He had been hysterical and tired and finally settled down and smiled.

The Peeples family at Tate and Luke's school who very recently lost their mom to cancer sending us a meal.

Seeing my old friend Shannon's sweet beautiful 5 week old baby at my sister's wedding shower after all day in the hospital with sick children.

Seeing a family at the hospital back after their 4 year old's treatment was over and is now again starting as her cancer has returned.

Describing to Tate and Luke the details of a wedding processional and imagining Julie walking down the aisle.

Getting to talk by webcam and an online service to our dear friends the Andersons in Uganda for an hour while in the hospital. We miss them so much!

Anyways, if anyone has been following my crazy countdown system, you will realize that today is the first day of the Beginning of the End. The rotavirus and abdominal cramping seem to be on the way out and we are hoping some decent sleep is around the corner.


For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. Psalm 91:11-12
