The Power of Friendship




Emma was so sad in the hospital. She wanted to be home with her sisters. When they told us she would have to stay one more night, she was so sad, she cried herself to sleep. Then, some friends from soccer came by to see her. This cheered her up. Then, her bestfriend ever, Kayla, came to see her. Kayla's mom let Kayla stay with Emma while they went to their Good Friday service. Emma lit up! She actually smiled and she didn't smile much because of the surgery. Kayla stayed and even offered to spend the night to keep Emma cheerful! Kayla didn't really spend the night but the friendship and the kind thoughts made Emma so happy.


Never underestimate the power of friendship. The power of time. It lifted my sweet childs spirits so much.


The picture is a little blurry because I took it with my cell. There is a before friends pic and an after friends pic...:)

Emma's Appendectomy


Hi Bloggy Friends,

On Thursday sweet Emma had severe pain in her lower abdomen. It hurt around her belly button and down. We took her to the walk in clinic and they told me to take her to the ER. Her appendix had ruptured and she had emergency surgery to remove it Thursday night.

She got to come home today. I am busy taking care of her but I wanted to update my blog friends.

Pls pray for her comfort and for her feelings, she is sad she can't go outside and play with her friends.

Thank you God for protecting my baby!!!

Happy Easter Everyone!
