Sick.

I guess sometimes in lofe you have to just SHUT UP and listen when he talks.

This last couple of weeks has been one of those times.

2 Mondays ago, I went into the hospital...
with kidney stones.

Horrible.
hateful.
sickening.
kidney stones.

I am not sure if I have ever been in as much pain....

Well...I can think of 4 other times.

Zeek.
Shashamane
Malachi
Sheba

But at least at the end of labor...you get a prize.

with
Kidney stones...nothing.

Just pain and INTERUPTION in your life.

I was in bed for 2 weeks.

14 days.
Countless TV shows.
Magazines(thanks Shainee)
all meals in bed...
and hardly any school-except what they got from Daddy.

It has been UNEXPECTED INTERUPTION.

It has been a FORCED relaxation period.

A lesson in listening and patience.

As I have laid in bed the last 14 days...I have had to relenquish all control....
Give up all expectations....
I have had to really SIT BACK and relax.

I am prayerful that when this is all over I will be BACK.

I am prayerful that this is the LAST BIT of my illness over the last year.

It has been a hard year ...health wise.

I am repeating:

"God wouldn't bring me TO IT, If I couldn't get THRU IT!"

Sickness...staggered.

Ive been behind on my posts lately...

This week has been a mixture of school and sickness.

The little kids got sick on Monday and it went thru ALL OF THEM...
were on Zeek now.

We have managed to PRETTY MUCH keep up with our schoolwork...
because GOD so kindly stagered the sickness.

Pray that Jay and I dont get it.

LOL

Especially Jay..we all know how "fun" it is when the husband gets sick!!!
