We had a very laid back day, it was a blessing. The girls and I went to see Hannah Montana the movie the night before and had a blast!!!!! Then Sunday morning we played hookie from church and went to Berry- just the 3 of us. We took a bible and our journals and talked about all that God created, and how we still can be in love with the world....and what that looks like. We prayed, then they rode bikes while I ran. IT was tender. A favorite memory for me.
After Berry, we needed to go to Kroger. As we were loading our groceries in our car, Camille knocked her elbow on our cart. She whinned a little, but no biggie. Next thing I know she PASSED OUT!!!!!!! Fell right over. Hit the car next to us, and was limp. OH MY WORD. TALK ABOUT A FREAK OUT!
She came to about 10 seconds later. Cried. But all was well. Come to find out that there is a nerve in our elbow that can be triggered and will make us pass out. WHAT IN THE WORLD?
Praise Jesus, she is ok. So, on Mother's Day, I was reminded that every healthy moment is a gift. That at any second, our lives can take a turn. I am stopping myself from all of the "what ifs" that I could ask about this. So right now, I want to say THANK YOU to God for the precious gift of three beautiful, healthy children. They are the true gems in my life. THey have each changed me, each made me stronger, each made me softer. IT is a puzzle....motherhood, it is the hardest, emotional and PHYSICAL thing I've ever done. Oh, how much HE must love me to bless me so.
Happy Mother's Day!
