We are trying to settle into a routine around here, but it is pretty overwhelming at times. The boys are starting to feel the stress and are having outburts and times of anger. I am too :(
Here is Adam doing Ellie's physical therapy with her last night. She was nice and awake after we gave her a bath.
Here is Grandpa Osterink holding Ellie on Sunday.
Well, my dad has generously taken the boys for a while this morning, so I am going to sit down, hold Ellie, and relax.
You very much deserve a break. Enjoy your morning!! Say hi to Ellie from me. :o)
ReplyDeleteEmily, you are such a strong woman! I am glad Ellie is taking her cold well and getting better.
ReplyDeleteHugs! We have outbursts at our house even without the extra stress, so go easy on yourself. Enjoy your break this morning.
ReplyDeleteI love you, Emmy, and the prayers continue. Your strength, love, and faith are so admirable... what a fantastic big sister I have!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice that your dad was able to take the boys for awhile today. Please remember to ask for help if you need it... HUGS
ReplyDeletePlease know that our thoughts and prayers are with you....
Isaiah 40:30-31
ReplyDeleteEven youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Praying God will give you hope and strength for each day.
Ellie has been home now for a whole week. There will be good days and stressful days, laughter and tears and that is all normal!!!Please know that we think of you often...stay strong.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Emily...........give the boys to your dad.....keep him busy!! Hope you enjoyed your peace and quiet time.
We are praying for you! Hang in there and don't forget to ask for help! It is fun for others to give!
ReplyDeleteLove in Christ,
Laura Wiese
Many thoughts and prayers are going your way. We pray that Ellie will soon be over her cold.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs, Julie & Philip
Sorry it's so tough. I am praying for you. We have outbursts here too, especially when people aren't feeling or sleeping well.. or there is a big change in the house. God bless you all.
