It's a busy life!!

As I am sitting at work today about to bust at the seams, I figured I would do something productive with my down time. Things have pretty much been crazy as ever lately and it is all due to a large combination of things. I have been having a daily guilt trip on the fact that I am a working mom. It has the hardest 3 weeks of my entire life. You know the saying "you don't know what you have until it's gone," well that pretty well sums it up. Steve's mom has been an absolute lifesaver in helping out watching the kids while Steve and I are at work. A few weeks ago she had back surgery to replace a disk in her back. Needless to say, the recovery has not been quick. Shortly after that, Steve's sister was admitted to the U of U hospital due to complications with her pregnancy. We are praying for her and her sweet baby boy as she is on bed rest at the hospital. We hope that they both come out of this as good as can be expected. The details of that would take a while to explain, so I won't elaborate on that. To top it off, this week is finals for Steve at school and I leave Thursday to go Atlanta, Georgia for work. The effort to find people to help watch the kids has been exhausting and they are always somewhere different. If you saw my schedule at work showing where they go, for how long, and who takes Isaac to school and back, you would laugh. I would like to tell all those people who have helped and those who are still helping me and my family out a huge THANK YOU!!!!! I could not do this without you and I am so grateful to have such great people in my life. At this time that I have felt that the world is just crushing down on me, so many people have given me uplifting words and thoughts. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
