So glad it's Friday

This has been a really long week and I don't see it getting much better BUT I am so thankful it's Friday and tonight is Sabbath.

Monday started out with a Medical Terminology test. Normal family/kid activities at home.

Tuesday was a LONG LONG day. My dear friend has a daughter with cerebral palsy. She need help taking her to the doctor and for X-rays. That was a trying time. ~J didn't like the X-rays or the fact that I was the one helping and not mom. After the initial X-rays, life was better or ~J. We "danced" around the room and had a laughing time of it. Unfortunately the doctor says ~J needs surgery on her legs. A very emotional time.

Now for the Really Really Hard part. Nique had to take Bugalicious into the neurologist. We knew it was to access her and go over the MRI results. But what wasn't expected was how bad the MRI seemed. Bug doesn't just have Chiari Malformation type I she also has syringomyelia (cyst in the spine). She will be requiring surgery. When we don't know yet. We meet with the neurosurgeon towards the end of the month. I know I say we when Bug isn't really my daughter. They live in my home. I take care of Bug and Peanut while Nique is working. I love those two girls as much as if they were my own. The neurologist thinks she still has Epilepsy. Wow was this appointment a lot to take in all at once. My mind is spinning worrying about all the changes for Bug and the rest of the family. Recovery time, limitations on her life for now, knowing trusting God to answer our prayers that He has and will continue to watch over her and us.

Wednesday was a blur just stressing about life I guess you could say.

Thursday we went over to our friends house to watch her kids while she went to a doctor's appointment. That was kinda fun watching the kids play. Then we had our monthly mom's night out twin club meeting. Our speaker was on "health eating with picky eaters." Lots of great information.

Today is cleaning, school work, and Sabbath preparation. I am so thankful that tonight is Sabbath. Tomorrow we have adventurers to look forward to with all the kids.

Have a blessed day

Mission Statement


I would like our home to be clutter-free, inviting and peaceful. My goal is to decide which tasks I need to do or delegate each day so we can maintain a better, more organized lifestyle. My goals also include providing an environment where my children can learn to be productive and Godly people. I want my family and others to know that this house is one where they can be free to live simply, love deeply and laugh abundantly. I want to be able to invite friends over without having to clean up for three days beforehand.
