Emily’s typically the Queen of the Random around here, but I am going to have to at least be a member of her court today. BECAUSE, I cannot. get. a coherent thought. together.
I don’t know why, nothing in particular is going on, or not going on, everything is just moving along. I have recently set a Wii bowling record for myself of 268 (HOLLA!) and I got seven strikes in a row or a “seven-pack”. BOOM! Sophie’s super into Wii Sports these days, so I’ve been getting a lot of practice in. She is actually quite good at bowling herself with a record of 210! And yesterday she KICKED my butt in baseball, 8-5. She got FOUR home runs, and I was TRYING! She’s good!
Jonah has been taking lots of STEPS this week! It’s so exciting! He’s a hesitant walker but I am sure within two weeks he’ll be running around like a crazy person! He is so sweet and funny, and so much fun to be with. I am really, really enjoying this stage of his babyhood.
At occupational therapy this week, the supervisor evaluated Sophie and said she is ready to be discharged! WOOT!! So Tuesday is going to be her last day. You can expect a sappy post about it from me next week. I am so stinkin’ proud of that girl. No more therapy of any kind, period!
My friend E’s friend, Susie, who is also a very good friend of my friends Becky and Erin, has surgery this week to remove a brain tumor. It was freaking huge and she is 15 weeks pregnant!!! Not to mention the mother of a three other kiddos, ages 6, 3, and 2. Baby is doing well, the surgery was a success, and they are waiting on reports to show whether or not the tumor is cancer. There were some signs when they operated that it was malignant. But nothing is for sure yet. Susie is a beautiful, sweet, amazing person! She is one of those people that you like instantly, and she and I collaborated on some things last year when E was battling cancer…it is mind boggling that Susie is going through her own health struggle now. I’ve been praying sooooooooo hard for her the last two weeks. It’s not like she and I are even close, we are just friends of friends who like each other, but oh my gosh she is practically all I can think about! And pray about! And so I hope you will pray for sweet Susie and her husband Ben and their three big kids and their growing baby. I know God is in control of this, I also know that He is listening to all our prayers for Susie and her family. I hope you will join the thousands that are lifting them up to Him.
Well, that’s my Friday random round-up. Hopefully I’ll get my act together over the weekend!
