great weekend!

Well this weekend was pretty good! Saturday I went to a wedding for a couple at church. It was a sweet and simple wedding. They are so cute together and obviously so in love. Then I came back to the condo and went to the pool. AHH yay for the pool!! Then I went to mom and dad's so we could go to a birthday party of an old friends children. Sadly she wasn't there, but her mom and her children were, she had gotten sick. Then we went by her parents new house, which is HUGE!!! Its like 7,000 sq. ft. I can't imagine. Then we came back to the house and ate dinner. I wasn't planning on staying @ home last night but I did because I was watchin real world which was really good. I miss my satelitte. I will survive.. That is what DVR is for. This morning when dad woke me up he told me that Laura, KC's friend was in Labor and was gettin ready to have her baby! Kate Elizabeth was born at 9:15 and was 8lbs 2 oz, 21 1/2 in. long. I went to church, then we had a lunch and guess what I did when I got home.... I went to the POOL!!! Then I came in and got ready and went to see baby Kate! She's soo cute. I also went to 3J and saw my friends. I stayed up there for a couple of hours talkin to Kendra and Connie, I went and got them a burger. It was very nice. Those ladies on 3J made a huge impact on my life and I don't think they'll ever understand. They came in and did things for you, yes it was their job, but they wanted to know how you were feeling and if you were getting better, and they wanna be your friend and comfort you if you were having trouble. The nurses were the same way. I spent a quite of bit of time up there for 5 months of my life and really saw this. Yes, they had bad days, don't we all? I think that I possibly made an impact on their lives too, but its a different type. I say all that to say, if you spend any amount of time in the hospital take the time to say thank you to your care partners and nurses. Let them do their job and let them impact your life the way they have mine!

Some people are gonna think I'm crazy for saying this, but I wouldn't take back going through cancer because that exerpience as a whole has taught me so many things that I could never learn not goint through it all. I'm glad that Jesus, allowed me to have that experience and I pray that I brought Him glory through the situation.

Good Night! :)
