Days 28, 27, 26

Well, Christmas 2009 has now passed and it didn't really seem like Christmas. Yes, we went and visited the J family in FW AND we had snow on Christmas Eve (we decided that the snow was our extra gift this year since we can't celebrate in our usual fashion) and we spent time with us three girls but there were two things missing. We really missed having Mom and Dad at home for our usual festivities. I told my hubby that one of the things I really missed this year was Mom's Christmas Breakfast casserole. It is the best and I think he really missed it to. Next year we are definitely going to have to make up for this year in spending time together!

Mom has been a little down these past few days because of the holidays. She is sick and tired of the hospital food and the four walls that she looks at day after day. Dad has been able to spend a lot of time with her and I know that helps. Us girls are ok but Dad is the one who makes things alright! They have told them that she may be out in 10 days to 2 weeks but it depends on how well she continues to do with her recovery. She is missing the grandkids (thanks to H1N1, they can't go see her). She did get to see her big sister yesterday and her big brother will be going to see her sometime this week.

Please pray that she is able to get out soon and that her kidney continues to improve.
