New Day

Yesterday, we faced a pretty big scare...one that shook me unlike any we had faced up to this point. Even once we knew all was okay and "normal," I just couldn't shake my uneasiness. I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep you safe. To think it could've all been taken away so quickly and suddenly yesterday was just terrifying.

I'm thankful for my family's visit yesterday. They forced me out of my funk, made me take my weekly picture, and did all they could to keep my mind occupied. As always, before leaving, Paka offered a prayer for our sweet family. I felt myself relax and feel comforted with his prayer. I offered my own silent prayer that this peace would continue through today.

I am so thankful that the Lord heard our prayers. I tend to get really anxious at night. By the evening, I am the most sore from the day's "activity." You would think I would notice this pattern, but every night it makes me nervous. Last night was the most peaceful I have ever felt before going to sleep. And even better, I woke up in that same peace.

Today I saw three doctors, all were very positive and optimistic. From there, my day just got better. I spent the day with Zsu Zsu and we kept super busy today! We chatted, watched some movies, showered, knitted, and even took a spin around the third floor! That afternoon Aunt Aubrey joined us for "Massage Monday," and gave my hands and feet a fabulous massage (oil and all! she's the best!).

feelin' good!

third floor stroll, here I come!

thanks Zsu Zsu! new hobby!

massage monday!

Later in the evening we enjoyed a visit from Grandpa Curran, Paka, and some of our close church family. It was such a turn around from yesterday's roller coaster ride. I thank God for His peace. I thank God for my family and how selfless they have been through this all. I thank God for another day you stayed put and stayed healthy. And I thank God that today was "a new day!"

It's a new day
Oh, it's a new time
And there's a new way
I'm gonna live my life
All the old has, passed away
And the new has come
Thank God, It's a brand new day
