I Think We Are Going to Make It:
1) I haven't cried for several days.
2) I'm still nursing
3) We are back in our home
4) The contractor said everything should be finished by the end of next week
5) I went to Bible study this week with all four children... and was EARLY!
6) My friend saw me and said, "Wow! You look great! You even have eye makeup on!"
But Maybe Not:
1) I still WANT to cry
2) I think I'm nursing in my exhausted sleep; I don't even remember when I'm up at night
3) There is a MOUSE in our house now. It has eaten through a favorite sweater, Tate's handmade blanket, our blue cooler, and I do not want to know what else. This is our first mouse here and it is unnerving. Not to mention everything else with the house.
4) The contracter said everything should be finished by the end of the week. . . three weeks ago.
5) i haven't completed my Bible study "homework" yet this week. (i.e. I haven't had 10 minutes of quiet to myself.)
6) The aforementioned eye makeup was not removed for two days

You have been through so much! I'm amazed at how you stay positive through it all. (God's grace? Or Super Powers? :) We pray for each of you. Glad you are home. And wear that 2 day old makeup with pride!!
Hang in there, sweet friend. I know you will make it through these challenging times and come out on the other side stronger than ever. Your resilience and positive attitude are amazing! Know that I'm sending you happy thoughts across the miles...
Love, Jess
I saw a tired Mama doing EXTREMELY well with difficult circumstances when you were here! I was encouraged by you AND your well mannered, fun children!
Love, Anne
