Morgan's dr appointment

Morgan went back to the GI doctor today, and we have good news!!! He has gained five pounds in the last month! It's really funny because I told Jeff this morning if he had gained weight I wasn't going to worry about it anymore because he has been eating more. The dr said the test results so far show that he is perfectly healthy so there is no reason to continue tests. He said they have done the "gold standard" for tests, and it isn't showing anything. There isn't anything that could even be confusing. We are going to continue to monitor his weight at home. As far as the pain in his legs, we are going to see if, after his foot heals, the pain in his legs has stopped then we'll know it was from him not walking right because of the wart.

Today was amazing.

I'm so glad I went to church today! Our Sunday School class is absolutely awesome!!! We have the greatest teacher, Boyd. Boyd is one of those treasures of men who share their heart, and isn't embarrassed about it. The whole church is doing a series of lessons on evangelism right now, and seeing Boyd talk about lost souls is such a blessing. He makes me realize I need a greater burden for the lost. Our class is very talkative. It's encouraging, because as Boyd teaches, others will make comments, ask questions, that kind of thing. The responses, though although sometimes difficult to swallow, are Biblical, and so encouraging! It was a hard decision to move classes, we enjoyed Bruce's class, but most of the people we were in ministries with, or had made friendships with were in Boyd's. We are both so glad we did! Thank you, Lord, for Boyd!

Today was one of those days that the energy just seemed to go on and on! We had our send off service for the Daniel's today, and that was a glad/sad time. It's so exciting for the Daniel's to get to go home, but sad for us, that we won't have them around here anymore. Thankfully, we now have email and facebook! We can talk instantly to them! No waiting months and months for letters. I was thinking today, that while our hearts definitely knit together with the Daniel's, I think God was preparing our hearts for them to be gone. They have been with us since last July, and only in the last month or two were they gone week after week, without having them in at least for a Wed. night service. I firmly believe that was God preparing us for them to not be here.

I want to thank and praise the Lord for his blessings poured out so freely to me today! Thank You!

I'm tired!

We have had so much going on this week, I feel like I'm going insane! Thursday I spent too long shopping, so I didn't get home til 8. Didn't do what needed to be done for co-op, so Friday didn't go smooth. Get home from co-op/ walmart at 4, pack up my scrappin stuff and leave at 5 to go to the AHG crop. (Had soo much fun with Cheryl, Tina, Gramma, and the others!) Didn't get home until 11:40, got to bed at 1 a.m., and woke up for some insane reason at 5:30 this morning. Are you serious??? I was not happy. We had Aunt Mac's funeral in Canton today, cleaned house tonight, and have church tomorrow. I'm thinking next month I might get a day to breathe! I don't know, maybe it's bad attitude, but I am wiped out! And my sinful self shows when I say I would LOVE to just stay home tomorrow. But I won't, it wouldn't please God.

I don't know, another day down I guess.

As a side note, I do NOT like the new facebook! It's retarded to me! The last one was so easy to figure out, not so much anymore!

Frustration

Morgan's GI dr called Wed. afternoon. Nothing. They found nothing. I'm getting very frustrated with seeing him continue to lose weight and not have a reason for it. I'm trying to keep him eating, which he isn't real fond of, and with him sick the last few days, it's been even more difficult. I know Morgan thinks it's just because he hasn't had much of an appetite. That could be so, but why has his appetite decreased to the point he's lost so much weight? We need to know these things. Dr. R is pulling Morgan's medical records from Dr. Montgomery's office this week, reviewing those, then we meet with him Mar. 30 for another visit. I have had so many people ask me about Celiac's, they looked for that when they did the endoscopy, but didn't find it. I'm wondering if I should just go ahead and follow a gluten-free diet and see if that changes anything. It bothers me more when I see him, as in his skin. He wears the same waiste measurement as Christopher! Christopher is exceptionally tall, but he isn't as tall as Morgan.


On a happy note, Christopher is 12 tomorrow! Wow! How time flies. I was looking at a video a friend put up of her new baby, and it made me really miss when Christopher was just a baby. He is actually planning his own party tomorrow. How do they do this? How do they all of a sudden be big enough to do this? We did finally figure out the whole birthday cake thing. Christopher doesn't like cake, never has. But he loves ice cream. Tomorrow we are going to have an ice cream sundae bar for his birthday party! I'm so excited!! Happy Birthday Christopher!!!!!
