it's the little things.....

this past week, i finally did something my dentist has been telling me to do for SEVENTEEN years.
SEVENTEEN years. eek.
i had my wisdom teeth pulled. yanked out from their comfy home.
and i'm happy to see them go.
i have agonized over this. stressed to the MAX about the pain and the whole unknown. i hate unknowns. (um. valentines day ring any bells??)
the morning of the surgery, i was a basket case.
and the chillin's knew it.
soooooo.....this went down. .......

after sending the boys off to wait for the bus, they all ran back in the house, had me sit on the couch, while they prayed for me (knowing i was nervous for my appointment this morning). if you look at my earlier post, you'll see our word/verse for the day was 'Prayerfulness'. wow.
please don't underestimate the power of prayer in your children's lives. they are watching....and God is working. just had to share!

thanks to wonderful drugs, prescribed by my doc of course, i have to say...it wasn't so bad.
i slept for almost 20 hours the first day.
spent the other 4 hours dreaming of going back to sleep. (i love me my sleep)
dear friends brought dinners. thanks kath, www.wubbenworld.blogspot.com and tami vw.
i so appreciate all of you who called and offered to do anything for me. friends are good. i have good friends. not to mention my mama who brought me, waited, took me home, picked up my rx's, feed me, tucked me in and just did every little thing that a good mama does. she's better than i deserve. thanks ma!
