Your prayers have been felt! The last few days have
been so incredible for me. It all began on Thursday evening when I was able to
go on a pretty lengthy walk with one of my best girlfriends through our
neighborhood. Then in the wee hours of the morning I was able to wake myself up
to put my pre-order in for my new iPhone 4S (something I have been waiting for
and saving up for since my birthday). Friday, I was able to meet some friends
at the park with our kids to play and picnic. That evening we celebrated my
dad's birthday with a delicious dinner that I was able to fully taste and
enjoy. Then Saturday was rich with friends and traditions (as I mentioned
before, two of my favorite things!) as we headed to the pumpkin patch and ate
Five Guys for lunch at the park. Today continues to be great with a family walk
to the park and lots of time outside in the yard. I have enjoyed sitting on my
front porch (one of my favorite things about our house), and I even started
reading The Help with hopes of
completing it in time to go see the movie. I have loved watching my kids
play. I especially loved watching Kalea hug all the pumpkins at the pumpkin
patch! The weather has been amazing and my strength has returned. I haven't
lost my hair yet so I am not reminded every time I look in the mirror. It is
almost as though I have been able to forget I have cancer.
The only
thing missing this weekend was being with our church family this morning. This
time period is when my white blood cells are predicted to be at their lowest,
and therefore, we thought it would be best to stay home and watch online. It
definitely isn't the same, but I am just grateful that I did not miss out on
Pastor Greg's amazing recounting of the story of Baby Moses in the basket and
how God used the faith of all the key characters to work out His perfect plan.
I was reminded once again of why I need to just simply TRUST HIM!
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those that love
him, who have been called according to His purpose."
