Yet, Another Update on Mom

Mom continues to do well. This morning she got to come over for a little while and watch the boys play. Those times have always been fun, but now they are cherished. Cason wants to show Sweets everything in our house. He kicks the ball in the soccer net, shoots the basket, starts all the trains, jumps on the beds, etc. Braden crawls around and laughs at his big brother and puts anything and everything he can find in his mouth. What a blessing!
Mom had a Dr. apt yesterday that gave her a lot of info. on what is to come. It is a bit overwhelming to take it all in, but there is a certain peace that comes with understanding. If we knew everything from the beginning it would have been easy to just give up. But, as God always plans it, He gives us things as we can handle them. This is no different. Mom is handling all of this surgery information like a champ. It is so over our heads at times but the doctors are so good to give us all the information we need. I say all of this because I am amazed over and over how patient and caring God is. He truly does take care of us at each turn. I have never really doubted that. I am at a place in life where I am holding on tight to it. We are all doing so well and feeling so much peace. I cannot believe that Mom has been so amazing through all of it. I have always had big shoes to fill and knew that her example was amazing. She has now taken it to a whole new level.
Thank you all for your continued love, support, and prayers. They are daily reminders of God's love for us. I read the verse, Ecclesiastes 4:12 today and was encouraged. That verse talks about the power of relationships and how a strand of three is not easily broken. So often, I feel like our family, you, and God are a strand of three and can take on anything that comes our way. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
