I am in my element. Reaping the rewards of our garden (incredible goodness), tunes on, sipping a glass of vino and the best part - my sous chef has joined me to craft his own creation. This is my kind of Friday night.

Happy 12th to this young man!!! To say the years fly by, is an understatement. He makes us so proud with his incredible heart and outlook on life. All he wants to do for his birthday is....you got it, golf. It’s a “bit” steamy today but how can you say no to a smile like that. Happy birthday Zacharoo!

❇️ The second pic in this post has been my vie

❇️ The second pic in this post has been my view for the last 10 days. Unexpected view, to say the least. In a blink of an eye last month, I had a bad fall during a hike....and plans changed. My plans changed & I quickly realized I was not in control. BTW- As an enneagram 8, plans and control in my life are key factors in security. Plans turned into surgery. Surgery turned into my world coming to a halting stop. A halting stop turned into a whole new view...

❇️ For the last 10 days, I have been forced to sit and have my body recover. I was not planning on being down for 10 days, nor was my Dr. But soon as the surgery started, the full internal damage was seen & plans changed. I didn’t plan on not being able to cook for 10 days, not take care of my house for 10 days, not drive for 10 days, and most importantly- not take care of my boys & husband for 10 days. My view had changed.

❇️ Sitting & recovering is not hard work, physically. Working through the pain is hard work. Having your mind spin while you cannot do anything is hard work. Trying to fight off the negative thoughts is extremely hard work.

❇️ I haven’t started my PT or Rehabbing yet so my climb is not even close to finish. But here is what I do know on my view... I see some incredibly, awesome women who swooped in and took over my house. Cooking, cleaning, watering my plants, loving on my boys. I see women who physically came along aside of me and prayed for me daily through the last 10 days. I see a husband who in the midst of a hard work year, made sure I was taken care of and loved through this. I see how incredibly blessed I am by other’s love for me and my family. In the middle of this cruddy storm of a year, I see hope for humanity.

❇️ I don’t believe God brings pain upon us. I don’t. BUT - I do believe we do get tested in our strength & faith though, by the other side. And in that, I say, I fear not...all my strength comes from HIM through my faith in HIM. One step at a time, I will make it to the top of this mountain in time. Until then, I’m loving the view on the way up. Isaiah 41:10

Happy birthday to this guy right here!!! If you know him, you know he has a smile that can light up the room in a heartbeat. He loves the boys and I fiercely...and would do whatever it took to make sure we are well taken care of. He is truly our rock and guiding force in our family. We love him so much!!! This year his birthday might look a bit “different” (ha-that’s an understatement) but this day is not one bit less important. If you get a chance, send him a text/give him a call. He loves on so many, I pray he can feel the love back today!
