I'm a little scared tonight as I end my day.
For a little tummy ache has now turned into a world of
lots of blood being drawn
and ultrasounds being scheduled
and new medicines to try,
and 2 other doctor appointments being attended.
What I thought was a typical issues, seems nothing typical at this moment.

However, instead of dealing with my thoughts today
I opted to enjoy the day with my kids and some friends who needed a break.
They are in their fourth home since the flood a month ago.
And just needed a break from their usual routines of not knowing where they are going to sleep
Or who is going to tell them something different then the day before
Or not have a routine to follow.

I took their kids to the pool for over two hours and I have a whopper of a burn to prove it.
We came back to our house and they played together and a new friendship was built
Between my son and their son.
As we learned today that they are in the same grade, but never met each other until today.

After a little time, we met their mom and dad for dinner at Pizza Ranch
(which with my test tomorrow I could eat only salad...which sucked big time!
We listened to their story of the last month and I realized my little bitty test means nothing
Nothing
Nothing
NOTHING
When losing your house, your belongings, your job, and stability.

I learned a lot today...there is always someone else...who needs our prayers just a little more!
