Day 10-"Oh we're moving on up...."

Remember that song from the TV show "The Jeffersons"? Yeah, I'm dating myself....At any rate, that's the song I was thinking of today when we found out that Makenzie was doing well enough to get off of the STICU floor and move on up to the 6th floor!!! Yeah! She is now in a private room as of this evening. My young girls (her cousins) finally got to see her as she was being wheeled into her room. She looked at them, smiled, and waved to them with her fingers....it was enough for them! This was the best Mother's Day gift for my sister and her family. Hopefully she'll remain there throughout the rest of her surgeries this week.

Ok, so tomorrow's Monday. The day everyone hates. The day we go back to work, school, or whatever. The day that everyone starts dreaming of Friday. When we were on the STICU, one of the people who works there stated that Monday's are the hardest days. It's back to the business of putting people back together. So, we're thankful to our Heavenly Father for what he has already done today. Tomorrow we go back to God to ask God to be with Makenzie through the next 2 surgeries. Let's get ready for Monday. Whether you're going to surgery or a final exam, work, or being at home, let us go before our Father and ask Him to be with us....
Happy Mother's Day my friends!
Mary

  4. Oh yeah! That is awesome, wonderful, joy filled, foot-stomping, see happens when people pray and what God can do, and on and on and on news! I know it did your girls a lot of good to see their cousin. I'm hoping to get up there before we leave for our bluegrass festival this weekend!
    Love to all,
