It was a week...

So I realized it has been over a week since I had blogged and I started this thing to have a record of what goes on in my life. I figured it was time to update especially since the person who told me I should journal my life has been on my mind a whole bunch this week.

Last weekend had the really good and the really bad. Last Saturday morning my Granny went to be with the Lord. She lived to be 90! How amazing! That was the really bad (at least for me because it was good for her.) The really good was seeing the preschoolers sing at church. I love my job and I love all 100 plus preschoolers I work with. Of course many of them had that deer in the headlight look being up on the platform with the bright lights and hundreds of people watching but it doesn't matter if they sang or did the motions to the song. See they are preschoolers so they can just stand there and they are as cute as can be.

Monday was the viewing so more sadness. Alyssa had a rough time and of course Carter didn't really get it. Carter was very matter of fact about the whole thing. He said things like, "Granny is in heaven with Jesus" and "When is she coming back from heaven?" Alyssa cried a bunch and was quite sad but what a blessing too. I mean how many people have great great grandchildren at their funeral grieving them because they loved them so much!

Tuesday was just awful! I took Carter to the doctor because he had been coughing pretty badly for the past day and a half. I would normally wait it out a bit but I felt an undeniable nudge to take him (that would be God nudging.) Anyway it turned out to be pneumonia but we caught it early. Then there was the funeral which was more sadness on a whole different level then I have experienced before. We then came home to get more bad news from friends and then news that Brian's grandfather is not doing well at all.

The week had to get better from there! Thursday Carter had soccer practice and praise the Lord he didn't cough once during practice. In fact he is doing so much better in such a short amount of time! Thank you God for answering that prayer quickly! Friday was time with my family from out of state and it was nice to just hang out and not cry for once that week.

That is the bulk of the week in a nutshell. Now onto the next...
