OOHHHH MMMYYY! i dont know where to start!!!! The last few days have been soo full of fun suprises and many answered prayer!!!!

As i sed in my last post, we had an ordination in our church this weekend! I had requested to especially pra tht i cud be at church fri. eve. an sun. morn. an eve. Well not only was i at church fri eve but i also went to watch the youth pla vbal afterwards!!! it was sooo much fun an jus what i needed.!!! i was aslo at church sun morn an eve. thnks grandma an granpa for coming an bein my driva!!!:) had a bit of a struggle with gettin my hair to cooperate but with a lil help frm frends an fam i had them up altho they threatened to fall down quite a few times! it was just what i needed an thnks everyone for overlooking the way i looked an makin me feel so accepted. ALLLL the encouragement i recieved wow words cannot express my gratitude!!! For those of you who didn't find out, Ivan Stoltzfus was ordained! I have no doubt that he will do a good job! Thanks again Ivan (an family) for the encouragement you hav been to me! You are in my thoughts an prayers!!! =)

Now for the shocker!!! I had a dr appointment this morn again an she was pleased with the progress shr saw especially with my walking! Thanks for all the prayers, my walking does seem to be much better. It still works best if I have someone or something to hang on to!! but anywa the shocker..... We got bac frm the dr visit around 12 or so. I was feeling quite good and was jus bored stiff! around three thirty i got this notion that I want to go shopping!!!=) my hold back was my hair soooo i decided im gana see wat i can do! welll i got my band in an tried rather unssucfully to get them up tight enough.:( soooo mom bless her heart came to my aide!! thanks mom i luv u! I put the band in an rested my head on my hands bout like i used to do wen i was a lil squirt!!!=) my head actuallly held still enough for her to put them up in a bob!!!! All i can say is God was answering prayer! We serve such a BIG God an yet He cares about every tiny detail of our lives!!! Ok so Colleen an i leave with plans 2 stop at k-mart an depending how it goes there we will decide if we can go anywhere else! Well since my walking is still hardly good enough to actually walk around in a store she went an got a wheel-chair and off we went!!!=) Im sure we got quite the stares but well u jus sorta do wat u gotta do!! Till it was all sed an done we had been at k-mart, khols, target, and 5-below!!! I had a trip an cudnt help but laugh at the few minor misshaps!!! The funniest was def at target. We decided that we wud get a basket for me to hold on my lap so things wudnt fall off my lap so often....anywa Mom wanted us to get a six pack thing of paper towels and a big bag of dog food!!! So there we were, Colleen had her hands full with pushing me around so of course we didnt hav a cart. oh yes an Colleen had seen one of those big body pillows so i told her i wud get it for her birthday!=) sooooo there we were this big pillow kinda behind me an i wuz sorta resting my head on it. but help we hav this huge bag of dog food tht we needed sooo she put that on my lap then put the basket with a few small items plus the big 6-pack paper towel half in half out of the basket on top of the dog food. We were only a little overloaded!!!!=) ha ha!!! i just laughed but poor Colleen i think she was a little embarrased! bless her heart she didnt say too much! ohhh myyy sigh i think if we ever do tht agan we will take a third person to push a cart!!!!! lol! anyway it got me out of the house an i wuz able to get a few things that I wanted...needed!!!

its so much fun getting out more and things definetly are better than they had been!!! I don't know where all God is going to take me in this journey yet but I know He has a plan for everything He allows and He will be right beside me thru it all!!!
