I am happy to say that both Rivers' and Jackson's surgeries are now scheduled! Praise God! Rivers will be having her surgery on Tuesday, October 28th. We'll fly up Sunday and stay until the following Sunday. We've got to get the flights and hotel room scheduled. Outside of putting the little pieces together, we're going to do our best not to dwell on what's to come. We have a lot to be thankful for and a lot of fun stuff to do with our kids between now and then. If everyone could help us to try and stay positive, it would be a big help.
I have been spending some time reading various Psalms after all of the "yuck" surrounding my kids really got me down last week. Psalm 62 verses 5-8 say: "Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from Him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress, I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor depend on God; He is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to Him, for God is our refuge." How AWESOME! God is my hope and He hears my cries!
