ER Visit

The day began just like every other day: wake up, go to swim lessons... but after swim lessons Trent wanted to stay and watch his friend Ryder do gymnastics. There is a bar like counter in front of a window that you can look out to watch the kids. Well Trent wanted to sit on it so he could see Ryder. We were all done and ready to leave so Trent put his foot on the chair to get off when his foot slipped and his head hit the metal chair and then the concrete. Right away a HUG bump on his head. Yes one of the scariest things I've ever seen. They called 911 and he was taken to the ER. Thank you Jesus for good news. The CT Scan came back good, no fracture or bleeding. All the praise be to Jesus. Then we were sent home with a list of things to look for. So that entire day and night I was a nervous wreck. To make a long story short I did not sleep that night. I watch Trent all night making sure he was ok.

I can not even imaging how BIG and AMAZING God is. To have to Sacrifice his son for all of us. I could not do it. So many of you know I struggle with anxiety and yes it did set in. My dear friend Christy gave me a verse to carry around all day repeating. Philip. 4:6-7 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." This verse really helped me. I really do feel God's peace in my life. I slept good last night. I woke up this morning and couldn't believe I slept through the night. Thank you God for your peace. We are still praying for a safe healing. We had a 8:30 am Dr. Apt for a follow up. The Dr. said it looks to be healing great. Dr said the swelling might last a couple more days and his head and eye's will continue to get more black and blue. So if that happens I will have to post a few more picture of his little face.

God has really taught me to live every day to it's fullest. We do not know God's plan for our life. As my husband told me,"Do not worry, trust in God's plan and have a little faith!" I will continue to work on these areas in my life. One last verse that helped me was Mathew 6:25-27 "Therefore I tell you do not worry about your life... Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life?"

What a sad little face.

Little more crazy!

Macy's quad is a little smaller than his so he likes to ride hers because he feels like he has more control. So he likes to do donuts and go over "jumps" bumps.

A little taste of what it was like at Trent's Birthday!

This is Trent on his new quad! Little crazy!

Trent is 3!

We asked Trent what do you want to do for your birthday and he said "ride my quad!" After discussing the idea, we decided since that's what he wanted to do for his birthday we would go ahead and let him ride his quad. Derick didn't think it would be a good idea to invite a lot of kids to his party because most kids haven't ever been on a quad before and could get really hurt or there would be a lot of fighting over his one quad. So we only invited family and make the party all about Trent. This is Trent here on his new Christmas present.

This is Trent running to get his helmet when he heard me yell it was time to ride quads.
Trent opening a new gun. We don't have enough of them already.

This was the kids eating cake and ice cream.

Cute cake huh.
