As we have walked this journey I have been truly inspired, amazed, and overwhelmed at the amount of support we have received on every level. Today, four different people spent their time at my house today taking care of my children (and me) so that Jason could resume his ministry work. They sacrificed their time away from their families, their homes, and just gave of their time for us. This isn't the first time this has happened for us either. It seems that every day someone is doing for us in this time when we can't do for ourselves. It is amazing to see the hands and feet of Christ at work first hand.
Today, I am 5 days past chemo. I have had 5 days of feeling yucky and sleeping most of the time. It's these days, when it is hardest for me to see the that there is an end in sight, that you all make the difference. When I see people loving and playing with my children when I can't - there are no words. There is a lot of emotion that comes up in me when writing this as I truly do not know what we would do without you all.
Your encouraging emails, your loving thoughts, your prayers, anything and everything that you do for my family is cherished in my heart. Jason said the other day that he could work for he rest of his life and never be able to repay all that has been done for us.
Your love for our family helps to keep me going. When I see all that you are doing, I see Christ and I hang onto that image in my weakest moments. Thank you and we love you all.
Funny of the Day:
So many of you have been missing my funny's of the days. Jason kept asking the last couple of days what they were going to be and I kept telling him that you had to be coherent before you could find something funny - unless it happened in a dream which is altogether possible with me because I have some crazy dreams.
Anyway, I do have something funny.... I have heard from a very reliable source that some of you have used my blog for some "bathroom reading." Now don't deny it, I know who you are and I don't want to embarrass you by saying your name or names. I just want you to know that I don't care where you read it as long as you don't start referring to it as the "bathroom blog" or something like that. That would not be such a funny of the day for me.
Love you all!
