Mellow day today. Oh how I love the end of the week when my life is far less Mommy crazy! I dropped Joel off at school and Connor and I headed off for our weekly waffle with strawberries and whipped cream at the cafe. I was happy to have him there this week with me because I didn't realize just HOW much waffle he eats and how much strawberries I eat lol. Last week I was stuffed and couldn't figure out why...I basically get three bites of the actual waffle!
After breakfast, we did some Easter errands for the Easter bunny mama. Connor is so little, he just had fun looking at all the candy and had no clue about the eggs and candy I was buying!
When I got home, I found out someone from my congregation was coming to help me do the dishes and laundry. She was so wonderful! She did 3 loads AND got the dishes done....I am so so grateful for people helping me! I forgot to write yesterday that I went to the doctor.....I try so hard this time to NOT think about my arm healing and just focus on NOT doing anything to damage it, that I completely forgot about posting about what the doctor said and the pic of the x-ray! So it is a day late, but the happy moment from yesterday was a picture that showed that my bone graft is still in tact and nothing has changed...I will take it! I will post the x-ray pic at the bottom of this page.
So with all of the help I had today, I was able to play in the pretend kitchen with Connor, help Joel with his school work, and do lots of other little Mommy things that I love to do.
We also had someone call and deliver pizza and salad to our home so I didn't have to cook. I cannot say enough how grateful I am for all of the help I am getting. I hope all of those people helping me to heal my arm get blessings back to them one hundred fold! Being able to not go into FULL mommy mode and cook and clean and do the dishes and other things I should NOT be doing with my arm really is helping it! I just pray people stay patient with me as I continue to ask for the help. If I can truly get this bone healed, then I can turn around sometime in the near future, roll up my sleeves, and get to helping others!
So today was a good day! We were blessed by the gift of friendship and we had lots of happy moments. I am going to do everything I can to get the kids to get a pic with the Easter Bunny tomorrow at the mall...wish me luck because I am going in without a stroller for Connor...should be interesting!
And now a pic....
