Heavenly Husbands and Beautiful Blessings

It has been a rough week in this household. I have been sick. I never get sick and my family was not sure how to handle that. On Monday night I was in the emergency room asking the doctor to cut my head off at the base. I had the most painful sinuses infection in my life. My sweet husband tried to do up the dishes and tidy up where he could. But there will be a lot of catching up around here this weekend. In the mist of all this I had a few extra special blessings.

By Wednesday night I had not left the house and I had not gotten dressed yet for the week. My husband came home from church with a very sweet get well card that all my Kings Kids girls had signed. That just warmed my heart so much. I work in Kings Kids with one of the sweetest ladies of our church. I have been so blessed to get to know Cindy and she even offered us a meal because I felt so bad. What an encouragement Cindy is to me, as well as many others. Thank you Cindy for all your prayers and having the girls sign that card made me feel so touched. I'm sure your acts of kindness helped me feel better faster. I missed you guys and I'm looking forward to being back with you next week.

Another person that warmed my heart was another sweet lady in our church. I received a phone call from my sweet sister. I happen to have one of the best sweet sisters in the program. She is always praying for me. She writes me notes encouraging me to keep going. She talks to me every time I see her. Her sweet smile is a blessing to all of us. The little gifts that she gives me are the best. On Friday Miss Debbie called me. I can't begin to explain how that picked me up. It is a blessing to know when you are struggling that someone is thinking about you. Thank you Miss Debbie for being such a great sweet sister. I know that Lord will bless you abundantly for your kindness. Thank you for EVERY THING that you do for me. You are the best.

My husband has been my biggest blessing of all. He is a kind gentle man. He has taken really good care of me and my children this week very well. This morning he is taking his daughter to breakfast (just the two of them). For months he has taken our son to the Men's Prayer Breakfast at our church and she has asked to go (of course she can't) so Sam decided that once a month he would take his daughter to breakfast. That is another blessing that warms my heart. I have so many wonderful things to be thankful for. The Lord is so good to me and my family. I'm thankful to be a part of such a GREAT church where people care about people but most importantly people care about me. I have had a rough week but because of my great church and my wonderful husband I think we have gotten through it just fine. Thank you everyone who had a part in making my week special and thank you Lord for my heavenly husband and my beautiful blessings. Well I had better start cleaning this house is gross.
