Prayer Answered...


I told myself I would not call the doctor until this afternoon, but by 7:45 I was calling. Finally around 8:45 this morning I got the news I had been waiting for, Kendrix's moles were benign(I don't really know how to spell that!) but that doesn't really matter because they used a lot of big words that I did not understand except for that one!! I am supposed to call on Monday to find out what the doctor wants us to do from here. Thank you to all who have said a prayer on for Kendrix. I was really worried about this, but I guess I should learn to turn all of that over and trust that it will all work out. That is a hard thing for me to do when it comes to my children.

On the lighter side, Kendrix was wanting to go to my mom's today and I was ready for him to go! On the way there Michael and I were talking about how he was feeling his oats and I said he has cabin fever. Kendrix looked at us, touched his head and said "No I don't have any fever!"

Update on Kendrix....


Yesterday Kendrix had his surgery. It was much more than I thought it would be. On his shoulder they took 2 moles off, they did not tell me they were doing that. He has 10 stitches there and on his hip he has 15 stitches. We will not know anything until Friday or Monday. I was the one that almost couldn't take it. When I saw his back I almost passed out. I was not prepared for what I saw. I will let you all know as soon as I find something out. Thank you all for the words of encouragement and prayer. Kendrix knows you all are praying for him and that makes him happy.

Are you ready for some Football.....


Kayman started 2 a day football practice today. I feel like it is just to hot, but I guess that is the way it has to be. I can't believe that he is old enough for senior high football. I love the atmosphere of football, I just hate it when he is on the bottom of the pile. I do the only thing I know to do, the minute I walk into the game I start praying until the game is over. Michael says I am just silly, I guess it is just a mom thing. The main thing now is to prepare for the big game!
Korie is still practicing basketball and now volleyball. She is growing so fast. I cant believe that she will be a 6th grader. She is ready for school to start and be with her friends.
Kendrix continues to be the same. He loves to sleep and swim. I am trying not to think about Wednesday, it is just always in the back of my mind. I just pray that everything will be just fine. He is starting to realize that not all 7 year olds have to take medicine and shots like he does. He does not like it. I think next summer I will send him to a camp with children that have health problems like him, I think he needs to know that their are other children like him. Please remeber him on Wednesday.
My life is about to turn upside down. I become a teacher on Monday August 18. I will be the self contained classroom teacher at Oak Grove Elementary. I am scared to death! I am ready just scared to think I am in charge. It will be great though. Just remember me though because when that door shuts I don't know what to do!!!
