I am blessed!

Today I am very grateful for family and friends that I can call upon in a nanosecond to help! I’ve suffered with migraines and kidney stones quite frequently lately. And when the pain comes, everything in Anna’s world comes to an abrupt halt, but thanks to an incredible family and wonderful friends, life can and does go on without me. So, when asked, “Who are my super heroes?” My reply is my family and friends! They will stop what they are doing and help me find relief and then – here’s the best part – they will rearrange their schedules and pick up right where I left off to help with the children, house, etc. For example…yesterday, I had a ferocious migraine that had been working on me for 5 days. I finally went to the doctor for a shot. Not being able to drive, Daddy came to the rescue. Mom was heading out of town and Joshua was working late, so dad strapped on his boots and became the superhero of the evening. He drove us around gathering all the stuff needed. I went to bed and when I finally aroused around 9:30. All the children were fed, bathed, had all the homework completed. Is my dad cool or what!!! Also, this is homecoming week and today is Cartoon day. Hannah is Smurfette, so her costume had to be cut out of fabric and put together last night as well. Whilst I’ve got faith in my dad that he could have managed, I did somehow coherently ask Carrol Hays for help with this one, and she did an excellent job! Kudos for Carrol!! The best part is that I’m able to have confident faith in these guys when I just can’t go anymore. I had no worries that everything would work out just fine. I’m SOOOOOOOOOO blessed!
