… what a day!
(Next week, I’ll give you the run-down on what the next 3 months–yes, you read that right 3 months–look like with scans and follow-up. My body is actually shutting down even more the past couple days, so I am sleeping a lot and finding little to no strength. That should gradually start to improve. In the meantime, here’s a glimpse of our Monday. Believe me, I’ll never complain about Mondays again.)
I have made no bones about how I love, love, LOVE Jj Heller. I have listened to her music almost daily through the past years. Recently she debuted a new album, Painted Red, and her I’ve been listening to her song, Your Hands, like crazy over the past weeks (not even realizing what an hit it had become on Christian radio, because I don’t listen to much radio.)
… I give you a post from a year and a half ago right after I had finished radiation. I just needed to laugh today.
So, this whole “going back to being a mom full-time” after months of other people caring for my children while I recovered? Not so sure I’m ready. I totally want to be ready. In my mind I am ready. My body gives out on me about halfway through the day, but if I can get a nap (that’s a big if!), then I can continue. I think the question is, “Am I mentally ready?” Perhaps it’s because my children are crazy! Crazy fun. But also just plain crazy.
…when we told our children their mommy is CANCER FREE!
And I wish I could see your faces as I tell y’all thank you for your prayers and encouragement. You have no idea how this bloggy world has held me up through so much.
Soli Deo Gloria
To God Alone Be Glory
(Will post more soon to update you on where we go from here, because while the cancer is gone, there is a very long road of recovery ahead… but we won’t think about that today. Today we’re going to CELEBRATE.)
Neither go back in fear and misgiving to the past, nor in anxiety and forecasting to the future, but lie quiet under His hand, having no will but His.
