Two Long Weeks

I am back after being absent for Two  Long Weeks.

We had a medical emergency at our house and it was more important for me to be at the hospital than at home blogging.

But we have received blessings unnumbered!  And I am so grateful for my children, their spouses, and our grandchildren.  They were such a help and a comfort to me!  I am one lucky mama and grandma to have all of my family live in the same town!fall leavesI took this picture a few days before our incident and this tree was just starting to turn all of it beautiful colors.  Now, two long weeks later, about half of the leaves have already fallen!!  I missed the first two weeks of October!

We have received many blessings and prayers that have been answered.   I am grateful for so many good friends and ward members that have supported us through this incident.

I know that there are many of you out there that have difficult trials that you are going through.  Hopefully you will find a way to find peace and comfort through the hard days.

My daughter and granddaughter stayed with me through the first few days and I am so lucky to have such a kind, thoughtful daughter. 

And her daughter is learning to follow in her footsteps! 

They were both such a blessing to me and they held me up during those first few days!

One night, after being at the hospital all day long, my daughter quoted Stuart Smalley from Saturday Night Live.   The next night my granddaughter put it up on my letter board!You're Good EnoughWe were able to laugh about my daughter’s imitation of him!  We put it up on the kitchen table and every time I walked by…it would put a smile on my face!!

All of my kids have been such a help and a support to me.  They have really stepped it up and  done so much.  I don’t know if I have thanked them enough or said “I Love You” enough, but hopefully they know!

After Two Long Weeks, my husband is well on his way to recovery and we expect him to get back 100%.  Thanks to all of you for your prayers and concern.

If you are going through a tough time right now, please know that you are loved and you are not alone!   Remember:

You’re Good Enough

You’re Strong Enough

And Doggone it

People Like You!

Hope you have a wonderful Day…Thanks for Visiting!

  2. So glad your husband is on the road to recovery! Hope things continue up hill for you all. Best of wishes for your family.

    1. Linda, Thank you so much for taking the time to write your kind, thoughtful comment. I appreciate all of your love and support!

  3. Glad you all made it through.. But, reading your letter, I was left wondering until the end who was sick. First I thought maybe one of your children or grandchildren, then I wondered if it was you, and then I finally read that it was your husband who was in the hospital. Sometimes these online stories leave us wondering. Most of the time we never get to know for sure. I know, the fewer details the safer it is online, so I guess that’s just the way our modern communications are going to be.

    1. Lynn, Kept you reading…didn’t I! :) I know that I did not give many details, but we are a pretty private family. There are just so many other people out there that are suffering and hurting that I did not want to dwell on our problems, which are small compared to others. But rather, I wanted to let other people know that they are strong and loved!

  4. So sorry to hear that….so happy to know your husband is on his way to a good recovery…Sending you good thoughts, prayers and love.

    1. Roswitha, Thank you so much for your prayers and love. Both are very much appreciated! My husband is on the road to recovery and going through the rehab treatments, so all is good!

  5. I don’t ever comment on blogs, but I was getting worried about you! You are always so positive and share the most fun quilting and family ideas. I’m sorry for the trial you had to endure and happy to know that things are getting better. Just know that you were missed!

    1. Janette, Thank you so much for taking the time to write your kind comment! I appreciate you sweet words and your support. My husband is doing amazingly well! He still has rehab to do for awhile, but we are so happy with his progress! Thank you again, your words meant a lot to me!
