Whew, I am exhausted and its only 8:45 am. The night before last I got a whole two hours of sleep due to a sick baby boy. We've got a baby we're praying for named Gracie.
Baby Gracie
I sat up for hours with Josiah just crying. I thanked God for my baby boy whom I got to hold. Baby Gracie is only two weeks older than my little Josiah. I sat and prayed for this family that night. Josiah sort of brings it all in perspective for me.
Yesterday, Jeremiah missed the bus for school and he had a field trip so I took him into town to go to school. ( About a fifteen minute drive) On the way, my van began to have issues, so I dropped it off at my husband's job to let him take care of it and I got his truck.I got home and made a phone call to a friend of mine and we talked until Josiah went to sleep and then I went to sleep. I got to sleep for thirty minutes. The school called and told me that Jeremiah was sick and to come and get him. At this time, its about twelve thirty. Off to town I went again. I grabbed a bite to eat and took Jeremiah to the doctor at one. I went to the doctor at one thirty. I got out of there at two thirty, went and got something out of my van and then went and got the girls from school. I had Josiah at the doctor, thirty minutes away at three thirty. We got out of there about four thirty, I went and saw my grandmother, ran an errand at Wal-mart and then went to a church at five thirty to eat supper and visit with a homeschool friend of mine. We got home about seven thirty. Jeremy was burning branches from when the storm came through a few weeks ago. After that, the kids went to sleep... I finally got to sleep at two or so only to have Josiah back awake at four...
The bus left Jeremiah again today so I don't know that I will get a nap... oh me, I love having our family, but sometimes being a momma is just totally exhausting.. but you know, I would not change it for the world!!!

Sorry about messing up here. Um...and about hanging up on you awhile ago. That was an accident.
I saw that they're holding out until Gracie's shunt fails for her surgery. I sure hope this little girl makes it.
Talk at ya later. Love you.
