This isn't so much about my pregnancy other than I think, maybe, possibly I felt movement yesterday. I was waiting at the airport in Ft Myers to come home when a couple of times I felt some fluttering. Maybe I shouldn't be so surprised because in the last two weeks my stomach has grown a lot. I actually feel a little sad when I look in the mirror. I can't imagine how huge I will be at 6 months let alone right before having the babies. I don't think my maternity clothes will get me thru this one. Hello shopping spree!
I had a really great weekend in Fort Myer celebrating with the Lang family. It was a bachelorette party for Karey, Doug's cousin who will be married in less than two weeks. Talk about one crazy family :). We went to a place that teaches Pole Dancing. So fun to watch the girls learn the moves. There were games for the bride and plenty of jello shots to go around. It was great being there with the cousins and aunts and even Grandma came.
Onto a more serious subject though. I wanted share some stories with you that perhaps you would pray about. While I was having fun in FL some of my friends were having some family emergencies.
Linda and Jacob Quist have 3 children. One is only a few weeks old. On Thursday they got news that their son, Ike about 2 years, has leukemia. He had to go into the hospital the same day to start tx and he is still there. My heart is heavy just knowing all too well what emotions they have been going thru.
Steve and Amber Shrontz have 2 girls, 5 and 2, and they are having another girl in a couple of weeks. Steve came down with pancreatitis on Saturday and is in the hospital. The medical staff is working to manage the pain but he is still in a lot of pain. Amber is taking care of the girls while being oober preggo and worrying about her sick husband.
I am going to help with meals and my time or anything they need help with but both of these families can use all of the prayers you can offer.
It all brings me back to those weeks we were in Ann Arbor and I get emotional. I wish they didn't have to go thru this now or ever. It's a tough road.
