Staying in Motion

This girl...

is all that's kept me going this week. Worked Monday. ENT Tuesday. From Columbia to Fairfield for visitation for our Darby Tuesday night. Funeral Wednesday. AWANA Christmas program rehearsal Wednesday night. Work today...I think. Bi-lateral tubes for Natalee tomorrow in Columbia.
To add to it...out of commission van for the moment--hoping to get it going tonight. Driving the car this morning and the rock chip that the auto glass company sealed for us decided to go ahead and pop and crack all the way across.

Really, not complaining...still thankful:
-that Darby knew Jesus and is resting with Him.
-that Natalee will probably not have permanent hearing loss.
-for friends who pick me up and bring over pizza, offer hugs, who call daily, & give encouragement.
-for family who watch my baby, rock her when she's out of sorts, and wash my dirty laundry.
-for a job to go to, even if I've only gone twice this week.
-for a car that's running, even if it's not my first choice.
-for health, Christmas, and all other things sweet.

Jenn,
I'm sorry I can't be there for you as much as I want to be. I know that you are in the best of hands with our family and community. Please please please call if there is ANYTHING I can do for you. I love you and I will be praying for Natalee and you and Mike tomorrow especially but know that I am always.

With Love, Lauren

seriously, extra vehicle if you need it. We're going to be together tomorrow and we have an extra anyway. I know the car is still drivable, but if we would get snow, a cracked windshield could be an issue!

can't watch the video:(. I'm glad I could help, even if it was by only washing a load of laundry and folding it. Of course, rocking Natalee was a HUGE sacrifice:) Just look forward to the weekend and then a big birthday bash! Hugs to you!
