Update on Chuy...

Chuy is doing MUCH better today - thank you for your prayers for my sanity, our finances and Chuy's condition. It appears to have been a severe reaction to the anesthesia or something. I'll spare you all the gory details - trust me here - but he is perking up and eating. Both of those things indicate that he does NOT have parvo. To tell you the truth, I'm not certain that God didn't perform a miracle and heal Chuy of what actually might have been parvo. Again I will spare you the details but there was much blood involved and there is now none. I am reminded of God's goodness to all of his creatures - and know that if he can heal Chuy of parvo, He can in fact provide me with the second child that I desire. (A little off topic, I know, but it's always on MY mind it seems!)

Now I've gotta take that ovulation test...sorry. Was that too much information? :o)

Be well and be blessed...I will post again soon - my kitchen is getting cleaner! Maybe I can actually get that video on here soon!

I'm so sorry that I'm a little behind on reading everyone's blog posts! I am so happy to hear that your dog is doing so well. I remember one time when our little dog was SO sick. My daughter had just gone off to college and was going through some tough things and really our little dog should have died. She was very sick. I remember crying and praying to God...pleading "not yet, please" and that little dog was healed. She's gone now, but she was almost 16 when she had to be put to sleep. It's so hard to see our pets sick. I definitely believe God heard my prayer for Molly and felt my pain.

Thank you so much for the sweet comment on my post yesterday. It's just been a draining week. Your prayer was precious. I love my caring blogging friends so much.

I'll keep you and your family in my prayers too.

Burrrr....it's so cold and windy today here in OK!!
I'm about to get out in it.

Enjoy your weekend.

Love,
Valerie

On the Brink of More Change...

I can feel it. I am on the cusp of something new. Something different. Something beautiful. I still have no idea what God might be up to - and I am truly okay with that at the moment. I have completed another round of Freedom in Christ. God spoke to me in so many ways...and He continues to do so. I feel so very valued and treasured by my Father. I am in relationship with Him in ways that I always wanted - yet never really felt were achievable. As I have put forth the effort to come to Him more consistently and with a growing desire to go deeper, He has been unendingly gracious and faithful. So as I fall on my face, He gently leans in and scoops me up. The panic and anxiety that once ruled my life are far less, and the calm amidst the  chaos has grown exponentially. I know where to go when it begins to grow again...and it does. Sometimes. Yet God is always ready when I call on Him...and that in and of itself are a learning curve for me. I've learned that others are not constant. Sh...

I Have Returned to the Land of the Living...

I promise that I'm around and making it here! It's been pretty crazy what with starting school and becoming a leader in our homeschool support group. (In my defense, I didn't realize that was what I was doing. I thought I was going to coordinate the holiday parties...turns out when you only have one active officer, said officer reserves the right to make you a leader in that group. Hmm. The things you learn. :) School is going okay...or should I be more specific? Social studies, Language Arts and Science are going okay...mathematics? Not so great. We have determined that Hooked on Math is NOT a good match for my child. He gets SO frustrated he winds up in tears within seconds of the MENTION of "Hooked on Math". (While I must admit that a portion of this is due to his processing issues and I want him to learn to be more flexible, I NEVER want him to be THIS stressed out. Therefore we are searching for a new math program/curriculum. I am very interested in Math-U-Se...

Keeping My Eyes Fixed In the Storms of Life

On September 20th, my father-in-law collapsed at home. My mother-in-law called 9-1-1 and emergency crews arrived within a few minutes. During that time, he stopped breathing and had no heartbeat. Emergency crews were able to revive him, and he was transported to a local heart hospital. The next two weeks were nothing short of torturous. In order to stop potential brain damage, he underwent a procedure that chilled his core body temperature almost 10 degrees and then after 24 hours, warmed him to normal body temp. Doctors were unsure if he would awake. However, after 12 days on the ventilator, when it was removed, it was like someone flipped a switch. He simply woke up. Even the doctors were amazed. Still groggy from the medications used during that time, he remembers nothing from that time, until about 5 days later, shortly before he had his pacemaker installed. Twenty-two days after his "cardiac event", he was released from the hospital. Still quite weak, he continues to g...
