Always Watching Over Us!

From 3:50pm until 8:00 pm today was just total and complete chaos, and stress. Today was gonna be a little bit stressful as Macie had dance pictures at 5:20 and Mark wasn't around to watch Wade. So I was already preparing myself for chaos. However at 3:50 Molly started crying like she was in severe pain. I went over to see what was wrong and she was licking her Bum like crazy. When I lifted her bum there was a huge Marble size growth on her bum. (This next part is pretty gross just to warn readers). I just barely touched the growth and this insanely gross amount and disgusting brown puss came out of the bump. It kept coming as well as blood and the most horrific smell ever. I seriously threw up in my mouth a little bit. I rushed her to the bathroom and pushed out more of the grossness, and Molly wouldn't stop crying. It was now 4:00 and I had to leave for Macie's pictures around 4:45. I quickly grabbed the kids, there stuff and the dogs and drove to the vet. They were amazing and took her in right away, cleaned up the bump, and gave us some medication to fix the infection. I then had 5 minutes to get from the vet to Macie's pictures. We got there ran in like a crazy person, and upon opening her bag to put on her dance shoes,  I realized that amoung all the chaos I had forgotten them at home. Great, I went to the dance teacher and asked her what I should do, she said she will have to be shoeless for the group picture and can borrow someones shoes for her solo shot. Macie of course started crying, she was already super emotional about Molly and this put it over the top. Then another little Miracle a friend from Macie's Preschool had her dance pictures just before Macie's and her mom said we could borrow her dance shoes and bring them back tomorrow at preschool. Macie was hesitant at first but then was very thankful as it was these shoes or nothing.  Of course pictures went late, and I had promised the kids french fries after Macie's pictures. We went to Boston Pizza and they were tired and hungry so misbehaving and not listening. We came home and I was done for, I told them to put on her Jammies and go straight to bed. They did so, and then brought me a book and said Mom please read us a book first. I of course caved to there cuteness, even though I was beyond done. After reading the book the kids gave me the best hugs and kisses ever and said Sorry for not listening at Boston Pizza and thank you for the french fries and Ice Cream. We ended with the sweetest prayer buy Macie, Thanking Heavenly Father for our day and all we got to do.

There is no question today was chaos, stress, and just annoying. However while Macie was praying I couldn't help but tear up and thank my Heavenly Father for everything he did to help make this day work out. From the Vet seeing Molly so quickly, Macie's friend letting us borrow her tap shoes, even little things like finding Macies stuffed animals she sleeps with at night right away when we had no idea where they were. He can't stop the bad days from happening, they are going to happen and they will be there, but his love for us is so amazing that he does everything he can to make it better, and to give us little miracles so we can get threw it. I love my Saviour, and I know he is real and that he loves me, and that he is always watching over us.

ANOTHER YEAR, ANOTHER DANCE CLASS!!

This makes all those Wednesday nights of taking Macie to dance class and waiting there for 30 minutes and trying to entertain Wade all worth it. The Pictures, the adorable outfits, the make up and hair, the Dance Recital at the end of April. Actually being honest this year has been awesome, Macie made a really good friend, and the dance classes are held at a school so me and Wade get to play in this awesome open area for 30 minute and have a blast together.
