So it seems like I only use this blog to journal in the summer. Well this summer we aren't going anywhere for the military. But I have my own journey to go on. This past week they found a large apple sized brain tumor behind my right eye. So since these things don't just get to hang out in your head, it looks like I will be having surgery to have it come out soon. That's a wee bit scary to say the least. But we've been trying to stay positive and work through finding the right doctors etc.
Today at church Timon (11 year old) bore his testimony about how he knows that God answers prayer. He also fasted for the first time. Such an amazing kid. How did I ever get this lucky? I need to remember that -- because there are times... I asked him how it felt to bear his testimony. He said that it felt "rockin' awesome" to bear it in front of everyone instead of just at home. I asked him about fasting, it said it was really hard, but worth it. It that doesn't get to you then you have no tear ducts.
Michael also bore his testimony about being grateful for a mother who got him to this place in life. She had her lung collapse last week (we're not doing so well in health department in the fam). And how he was grateful for the mother of his children. Love that man! How did I get so lucky!!!? Remind me of that the next time he's off militarying and I'm walking the dog in the wee hours of the morning.
Then my friend Shauna bore her testimony and bawled through the whole thing and told me how much she loves me. One of these times I will loose it and start crying - but I haven't yet. Don't get me wrong it pulls on my heart strings but you would think I'd start sobbing or something. There were probably a few confused people in the congregation as well. I didn't stick around to find out. I'm not really in a chat about it with people I don't know mood. I came home and the dog and I had a nap. Maybe that's why both the dog and I aren't sleeping at night - because we keep taking naps. Could be!
