Even mommies get ouchies

   Please forgive me for not posting yesterday.  Tuesday afternoon I slipped in the wet grass and put my hands out to catch myself and managed to scrape & bruise my knee, hurt my right side and hurt my right hand, especially my pinkie finger.  It's not broken, but its extremely sore and my hand is bruised.  I wasn't able to use it much yesterday, but today is much better. (I promise to post an extra day to get my 31 posts in)
   The reason I fell was because I was running to help Wyatt who was hurt and in the end, I was hurt worse than him.  Wyatt cried because he felt it was his fault I was hurt. I explained that God makes mommies tough so we can handle anything.  In case you're wondering, he's fine, he's just so tough. 

Can you see the discoloration on and under my pinkie?

   In the past 7 months a lot has happened in our family, both good and bad.  And when I stop and think about what I've learned, I realize that not have only am I strong physically, I am strong emotionally and spiritually.  And when I feel like I have nothing left to give, God is with me ALWAYS

“The woman is weak, but the mother is strong.” - Korean proverb

One more thing I've learned is that it's ok to cry.  Sometimes a really good cry is what we need.
