So Humbled and Thankful

First of all, little L is much better after a 3 day bout with the stomach flu.  Poor baby was miserable.  Andy and I both missed a day of work to care for her.  I went on a 24 hour retreat with my friend Katie with her church and had a really nice time.  I get messages on my Blackberry, and I kept getting notifications that I had new donations for the 3 day walk.  I can't tell you how excited I was.  It has overwhelmed me how generous and supportive everyone has been.  This cause is so important to me, and affected us so deeply, that it just is so heart warming when I find out that someone else has donated.  So, thank you, from the bottom of my heart.  Andy gets this teary eyed grin on his face when I tell him about another donation.  Someone elses mom out there might be saved because of YOU.

I got home late last night, and today has been busy spending 2 hours at Wal-Mart buying groceries for our impending ice/snow storm.  Everyone and their cousin within a 50 mile radius was there too.  The lines were 5-7 carts long and they had every line open.  I didn't realize we already had enough milk, so I have 5 gallons if any one needs any :)  I plan on hopping on the treadmill as soon as I fold my laundry, so I will get my long workout in today.  Looking forward to the scale tomorrow too, will report the results!!

Saw the movie "Like Dandelion Dust" this weekend at the retreat.  What a tear-jerker.  It is especially hard to watch if you have ever considered adoption, but really was good. 

I hope everyone has a good week.
