BLESSINGS!!!

So many little blessings from loved ones:

I have received loads of encouraging emails and text messages, kind words and prayers!!  They all mean so much to me.

I received a big Incredible Edible Bouquet and choc covered treats- the bananas were delicious!

One friend took me to a “Korean Café”.  It was a quaint place and the time was sweet!

Another took me to an authentic Mexican restaurant – yum guacamole!

I’ve received cards and gift cards, so very thoughtful!

This weekend a sweet friend took me to get a pedicure!!!   

And three wonderful prayer warriors made their way from Macon to pray for me.

And of course a lot of hugs!

I am so blessed.  It is so cool when you are not expecting anything and unexpectedly you get surprised by a person, wanting to do something really nice.  I am surrounded by truly good people!

I do know that when someone close is facing something difficult, it is hard to know what to say, and what to do.  I am sure it feels awkward to some.  I’ve been there too.  Just know that I’m really ok.  I like to laugh and was able to recently when Stephen had to let one of his co-workers know what was going on with me.  This big gruffy man sputtered and choked then just said,  “I am sorry, I suck at this!”
