Just Breathe & Stack Stones

Whew...the days since Friday night have been a whirlwind!  They have been filled with Motrin, Tylenol, slings and sponge baths.  Aubrielle got her hard cast on yesterday and I was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.  She really has been SO brave through this whole ordeal.  She rarely complained of pain only asked for medicine once and would only gripe when we bent her arm.   Which makes sense now because we found out yesterday after new x-rays that her elbow was involved in the break and her temporary splint didn't quite go high enough to keep that stabilized.  She is back to her old self~running, jumping, swinging and begging to go to the park!  (I just cannot do that just yet...need a mental break from parks for awhile!:)

I have been so thankful for God's hand on our family during this time.  There were so many little things that Bferg and I kept recalling over the weekend that showed us God was in control and among us.  In the Old Testament God commanded the Israelites to stack stones so that they would remember the works of the Lord...we have done that so many times in the past 5 days.  So thankful to our God, so thankful for His provisions on our lives and so thankful that He heals our bodies!


Well, my girly girl picked ~PINK~ for her cast color...she didn't even have to look at the color wheel.  She had her mind made up.  "Pink is my favorite!  Everyone will love my pink cast!"  You are right Aub...we all LOVE the pink and we love you!  Thank you all for your prayers and well wishes!  She is doing great and will be getting her cast off in 4 weeks...just in time for Halloween!

Enjoy your Wednesday and remember to look for the "stones" when God sends you an unexpected something into your life.
