Talk About A Stress Filled Week

We had a lot going on this week.  Form All-Star Games to our sick Huskey to having Adam's surgery lingering in out minds all week.  Stress is nothing new to me & I think if I do say so myslef I tend to handle it pretty well.  With each stressful situation we learn a little about our selves and about our family.

In All-Stars this week, i learned you cant win them all.  Although I knew this, it had to be relearned this week.  Justin played well and in my book hes still my All Star.

With Jake (our 13 yr old Huskey) I have learned that the realization with loosing your first family pet is going to be tramatic no matter how prepared you are.  And just when you think you have prepared yourself the little guy finds his 2nd whilm.  He may just surprise us yet.

Adam was such a trooper for his surgery.  He is as strong as I would ever hope to be.  He rocked it out like a champ and could care less that he now has a extra hole in his stomach and is appendix free.  Hopefully with this surgery we are goign to be able to keep him healthier & knock some of these hospital stays out.  And of course our main goal to keep him out of pain.

I almost forgot, we also sent Robbie of to PA for Wrestling camp.  He has NEVER spent more than a few nights away from us.  He will be gone for 8 days with another wrestler & his wrestling coach.  I miss him like crazy and its a little stressful knowing his 8 hrs away & I cant just go running to him if he needs me but you have to let them sprout thier wings at some point.  I think I am doing good compared to Rob... LOL

Through this week I have learned I cansurvive under pressure & full plate.  Our family as a unit is strong and we have lots of love & support.  Form Grandparents, to aunts & uncles, & a mass load of friends.  Thanks to everyone who made this week a little easier.

We are Blessed!
