Isn't she precious? A missing husband is never replaceable, but this little face comes pretty darn close.
Our yard is finally clean and ready for play. I got dressed and ready today in a silent house! I sent Nate and Abbie out back to play by themselves for the first time. Of course my window was open and I watched non-stop, but it was nice to feel like I could be in here while they were out there.
At 10 we met Melissa (and Jacob and Hailey), and Rachel and Haven Cowan at the park by our house. The kids had a blast playing and I gave Rachel a VT message. It was so beautiful outside and a wonderful way to spend the morning.
We walked home from the park, had lunch and then took Nate to preschool. Abbie and I came home to nap, then went back to pick Nate up from preschool. We then went to Orange Tree Imports to buy a birthday gift for their cousin, Joshua. He turns two tomorrow, but we celebrated tonight with a barbecue and ice cream cake at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
In the middle of everything, I got a phone call from Ra. She said that her doc had called and they had found an EFI in her baby's L ventricle. We talked for a while, but I felt very helpless. I offered prayers and called the Bishop in the ward that she and Kris would be in if they were members of the church to ask if he could find some men to give her a blessing. (Rachel said that she would really appreciate a blessing.) I know that this is in the Lord's hands and trust that He will bless her as He sees fit. I will continually pray and ask for all of your prayers that their baby is healthy. I also had her name put on the temple prayer roll, so prayers are coming from all around! I guess that's all I can do for now.
I will exercise again tonight and then start this whole thing called life over again tomorrow. Sigh.
