Today

I was reading one of my friends blogs and it got me thinking.  Since having Beckett I have had to find the new rhythm in my life.  Adding a third child hasn't been to difficult, just another person's needs to fill which has kept me pretty bussy. Some times I think I have life down then something will be thrown in my path and mess it up or complicate things. 






I have such a hard time trying not to control and plan out everything in my life.  I would never have imagined the life I live know, and you know what that's okay.  My life is far better than I could have imagined.  Yesterday we had a little scare.  Two weeks ago Allison's earring back got lodged in her ear.  The earring some how during the night wiggled its way further and further in her ear lobe.  When the doctor tried maneuvering the earring it self out it pulled the back of the earring further in her ear.  Yesterday was her ENT specialist appointment, also her school conference, and two soccer practices.  Let's just say we didn't make it to everything on the list.  Richard got off early to be with us at the appointment.  It turned out I had to leave in the middle of the apt to go to the teacher conference.  Richard and I text back and forth, I was completely shocked when he told me after several attempts the Dr was unable to get the earring back out and they would be taking her into surgery with in the hour.  I began to freak out, all this fuss over an earring!  I left the conference and head back towards the Dr office. Out of know where the doctor decided to try one last time.  At this point we were set for surgery, the doctor decided to use a different tool and guess what he got that silly thing out of her ear!

When unexpected things are thrown in my life such as this earring fiasco, Beckett's digestion issues, or just an overwhelmingly busy schedule.  I am reminded through the bad just how blessed I really am.  I am trying to learn to follow the road that my Heavenly Father has for me and enjoy the ride.
