Old has gone...

Just thought about asking Joel to go get me a coffee.. Then I remembered he can't drive yet...

I am not complaining, but it's these moments that remind me how things are not the same. I am thankful for so many things. We have and will continue to survive so many things in days ahead. A simple coffee just reminds me that there is no going back. The old is gone and new has come.

My heart breaks at times for my once very independent husband now needing me or others constantly. I know this is the hardest part about a repeat surgery. 24 hour care and complete dependence on yours truly. I love him dearly so I don't even think twice about this season. Thankfully Grace and love and humor have infiltrated even the hardest moments! I know this will continue in days ahead!

Do pray as we enter another work weekend. Pray for our village as they fill my shoes. Pray for Joel and that his frustrations will be few, as his heart is reminded this is only a season. Pray for Princess as my working was hard on her last weekend. Pray for me as I seem to be tired at times. Go figure.

Thank you for your prayers, love and support!
