Without going into lots of details, Heather and Keith have made it through a very difficult week which included a procedure on Wednesday for Heather. (Actually, the procedure was probably the easiest thing she had to go through this week!) She has been resting at home, not able to lift Kaleb, but she should be able to return to work on Monday. The range of emotions have been just that, a range, but they are looking to the future instead of to the past. Losing a night of sleep earlier this week has caught up with me tonight and I remain amazed that God saw to it that I was able to complete this work week without crashing. As I say quite often, God is good...all the time.
Can I just tell you that I don't understand why things happen but I do know that I am unbelievably thankful that we are 15 minutes down the road when we received that phone call from Heather in the middle of the night. I prayed over and over a prayer of thanksgiving that I could be physically present to comfort my child. I hope to never forget this week.
Tonight, Tarpon Springs is playing Edgewater here in Orlando in high school football playoffs. I so wanted to go to the game to see some of the Tarpon kids playing but we have had rain, rain, rain. For several years, I sat in the football stands in the rain under a poncho videotaping a super cute cheerleader and/or a handsome football player. Now that they are no longer on the field, I don't have the same desire to watch the games through rain so I didn't go tonight. I'm hoping Tarpon can pull off a huge win against the Eagles.
Please pray for employment for Chad and full-time employment for Henry. We are thankful for all God has provided and know he has the plan we cannot see. We look forward to seeing how all of this unfolds.
In the meantime, know how much your prayers, cards and phone calls mean.
Love and blessings, Pam
