Thats right… I was in desperate need of a “Do Nothing Day”. I think we all get there at times. I felt like it was super important for our whole family… Greys little heart is hurting and she’s struggling with me leaving each day for doctors appts. She needed me… and how long will I be able to say that? Hayden and Lucy are older, but I can see it effecting them just as much though they can hide it and push through better than their little sis. They needed a day where we were in sweats and had no agenda… Cory needed it too, and maybe one day I’ll be able to talk him into enjoying it with us😜… but today was NOT his day to do nothing… in fact it’s almost 1 AM and I’m still waiting for him to come up to bed!
I could use prayer as we try to figure out what we can cut out of our schedule. We need time at home. Time together as a family. Dates with our kiddos. Time for Cory and I to set aside and communicate. Right now I feel like I’m not good at anything, but I so desperately want to be! I’m struggling with getting out of bed. I hurt. I don’t have any energy at all. And I’m so insanely COLD😬, yet this is only the beginning of the cold here!
I don’t share this to complain… just in hopes of being real, honest and letting you know what we could use prayer with! God sees all of this and the rest that I’ve left out… He’s got us!
Im already looking forward to another Do Nothing Day soon! And in the meantime, if you know anyone who wants to house swap with us for the next 4-6 months… they can ski, and enjoy all our winter sports here in Bend and live on our ranch and we will swap for their tropical destination!!!😜 Send them our way! (A girl can dream, RIGHT!?)
Here are a few pics from our week… gosh, I love these three and their daddy!❤️
A few nights ago we celebrated Jakes birthday! He enjoyed his peanut butter, cheese cubes, and meat! He wasn’t so sure about those 6 candles though!
I had a dentist appt and we got to go spend some time with Great Gma! Man, we sure love her… she’s quite the special lady!
XO. Sincerely, Dani
I am praying for you and yours! I got diagnosed with Lyme disease about 5 months ago now and, along with the ‘fun’ other chronic pain issues I’ve got, am frequently in bed or on the couch! My hubby just bought me an electric throw last night and i think i’m just going to live in it until spring. Best invention ever.
ARGH… I am so sorry Laura! Adding you to my prayer list and asking God to heal your body! XO
