Anxious

Now that the Holiday hustle and bustle is over, my focus is on my upcoming surgery. It is on my mind all the time. I have been reading books and blogs and going to my doctors appointments. It is only days away. I am anxious for it to be over. It is going to be hard on everyone in this house. I am told 6-8 weeks recovery. Luke is my very dependent “Mommy does it” little guy. He is a cuddler and demands my attention. It will be very had on him. Jacob we are waiting until a day or two before surgery to talk to him about everything. He is my quiet worrier. I am not sure how he will handle everything. Jayden will be the big helper. She naturally loves to help and will do everything she can. I fear that she will have too much and be expected to do more than she can handle. She is awesome with the boys and helping around the house. Mark is going to be in for the shock of his life, he will become Mr. Mom overnight. Up to this point, he has done very little in the home other than help get the kids to bed. I gave him his first lesson on laundry. There will be so much that he will have to do in the home. I am unable to lift even a milk jug. There will be meals, dishes, laundry, cleaning, getting kids baths and to bed, getting them off to school. Oh this will be interesting. Myself, I don’t know what to expect other than a lot of pain and discomfort and going stir crazy in my home.
I am reminded on my favorite verse Phil 4:6 "Do not be anxious about anything, for it is byprayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."

Volleyball

Jake  went with Karen after school and to the field. My mom, Luke and I went to Jayden’s  Volleyball game in Coon Rapids.  They played 4 games all losses. They were not having a good serving night and that really hurt them.  Still enjoy watching them learn.

Treasures

 In the morning we took 3 of our 4 cats to the vet for shots. The 4 th cat decided to wander this morning missing his appointment. On our way out, we passed a rummage sale and stopped. We got some major treasures for next to nothing. The church ladies were so fascinated with Jacob's interest in old radios and televisions. They just adored him and marked the prices way down and gave him some for free. We loaded up on kids books, got some board games, and a few other treasures. Jake ended up with a mini  television , an old radio and Polaroid camera. After lunch the boys went straight to the field. My friend Carolyn and her daughter Tabby came to ride horses. What started out to be a chilly day 45, turned out nice and sunny. We had coats on, but it was a great day to ride. We rode through our hay patch and along the waterway near the highway. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Dayton Fun Show

 It has been cold and windy for the past week, highs of 45. Today the sun was shinning and it got up to 60. There was one final horse show for the season at the Dayton arena. We took Jayden and Jacob while Luke went with Grammer and Po and was supposed to come later. It was a fun show geared for practice and the kids. Jake did really well on Winnie, he rode in walk and trot, barrels, and poles. He did some loping. Jayden did pleasure, milk can, barrels, poles, and a jumping event. Her horse Tex really jumps high for the jump event. Down in the arena, there was'nt any wind and the sun came out. It made for a nice day.
