Thankful

Ben is in Indy this week enjoying time with family.
Hopefully Addison isn't too spoiled by the time he leaves.

Some friends who just moved to Magdalena a few weeks ago have graciously offered to stay with us while Ben is away.  I am so thankful to have help!  They have been playing with the boys, doing dishes, helping with meals, cleaning, changing the 5 gallon water bottles, etc., etc.!!!  Not only I am grateful for their help, but simply for their presence!  If they weren't here I know I would not be sleeping well at night!  I'm a bit of a chicken!  I hope and pray that we don't drive them crazy :)  I know I would have gone crazy if I had to do all of this by myself!

I ventured out to the market this morning with the boys.  Telma saw me so she accompanied us and insisted on carrying my basket.  Paty walked the boys home from the art school today and came in to see if we needed anything.

I was so nervous to be flying solo for a week, but I am so thankful for friends who are willing to sacrifice to make sure we are well taken care of.

  1. It is SO wonderful to have helpful friends! We have had a wicked cold (all of us) and I was almost out of milk a few nights ago. I asked for help on Facebook and THREE friends from church offered to get us milk! And the one who brought it brought cookies, too. I admit, I am not great at asking for help, but with Keith working nights I am getting better at it.

    I miss you!!
