Overwhelmed with Thanksgiving...

It has been a long time since I have written.... I don't even think I wrote after Cory had his clear scans. As you can imagine it has been crazy. We have had our up and downs of emotions. Yes you read right;I did write  downs when it came to emotions. I think the hardest thing for Cory and I was how to act after the scan. When we where going through the storm so many people where holding us and making sure we where ok. Then Cory was clear and everyone gave us space but we did not know what to do with it.  That is the hard part when you are going through the trail we have some who don't know what to do so they don't come by or hang out. But then you have those friends that all they do is come by and bring Potato soup:)  I think Cory and I went through a little of survivor guilt. Why us? What do we do next? My sweet Lord has been so patient with us. Listening to our thoughts and hearing our hearts.. I am so thankful that I have a patient God. Also I am so thankful that I have a God that answers our silly questions..We may never know the Why? But I do see more and more the gifts of last year. I have learned to STOP ! To smell the roses as people say. Cory and I get the saying "enjoy your little ones because this time is not forever...." something you roll your eyes at because you are still not sleeping threw the night.

And have not had quiet time in forever that you think it will never happen again.  Just look Isabell is almost Cory hieght and Sabrina is that best baby sister I could have. You will sleep again and have quiet time. Then when that comes you will miss them sitting on your laps.. 

But one thing that latly has really jumped out at me or I would say a word that really jumped out is PRAYER....   We have learned to pray for our friends the way they prayed for us. To pray for marriages because satan is after our homes.  To pray for our babies. Or just to pray . Prayer is what healed Cory nothing else. Prayer works for all things but for some reason we only pray for food or when we need something. Prayer is the time we talk to Jesus. Stop and think about that. When you Pray you are going to the thron of the creator of everything... WOW  is all I can say about that. Latly my prayer has been more just saying thank  you,  thank you, thank you. 

Why  because my sweet boy points at all the photo's of his daddy and say daddy.

 I can not help but think if the Lord would have  said "no Edith I am taking him home." He would just be seeing the photo.... I would cry everytime that he would point and say Daddy...  You see Louis is in love with his daddy. Thank you Lord for letting him here a little while longer. You see we are all here just for a little while. I am thank ful that Louis gets to eat sugar cereal with his daddy late at night.

Thankful that he gets to share chips on his daddy's lap.  Thank ful that he just has his daddy. When he points and says daddy I say Yes he is at work. Thank you Lord he is at work.. So please keep calling, praying and, taking us to the thron of God . We still need it ... We are still fighting a battle that we all can not see.... Thank you to all my sweet friend who love us, laugh with us, and still cry with us.... Just want to say thank you  truly overwhelmed with Thanksgiving at this time of year when we stop more to say thank you....
