Church
Today, we went to church as we have been on Sundays. Aiy, decided not to come over last night so we didn't have to get up that early for Church. Church is fulfilling to me. I enjoy being there. The kids are a little distracting, but for the most part, they do well. We came home and Daddy made us a huge breakfast. YUMMY! I was so hungry. As he cooked I called my mom to see how everyone is doing. Uncle Frank is home and has been since Friday night. He's not doing too well. His legs are weak from sitting in the hospital for three weeks and not walking. He has to get help sitting up in the bed and walking around his room, etc. I prayed for him to get better and stronger. I'm glad he's well enough to be home though. Mom says, his appetite isn't that great, but it's getter better. He only eats three small meals and sometimes not even that. He's lost over 30 lbs. Total. Which is great! Mom's got challenges ahead trying to keep him on that schedule. A nurse will be coming to the house once a week. They also want to enroll him in a rehab. class to get him strong again. He's scared that they'll admit him in a senior center and leave him there. That's absolutely awful. No one would do that to him. I think he just doesn't know what to expect and is a little apprehensive. I told my mom to let him know that she'll go with him and be there to watch him. Poor Uncle Franklin! I'm sure he can only benefit from it. On Tuesday our Church is having Thanksgiving dinner and service. I work on Tuesday evening, but we're going to try to make it in early. There's so many different things I want to participate in at church and it seems like with my new job that it conflicts. Ugh. I know I can make it work, I just have to figure out how. I also signed up to be baptized there and I really want to do bible study on Tuesday mornings. I am really excited about all of it!!!! :):):) One thing at a time, I tell myself. I should end here. I have to get the kiddies up from their nap. Oh, by the way...I took a nap too today. YAY! I am finally getting my rest from these two hectic weeks. :) Amen!
Glad that he's finally home.
Stay strong. :)

Thanks Colette! It's been a rocky road. Hopefully, with the nurse coming in to the home, things get better.

Baby, Mom is going to have a HUGE challenge in front of her with staying on top of him. He needs help with just about everything. I think she needs some extra help. :{
