Rejoicing in the Goodness of the Lord!

We are rejoicing! Rachel's headaches are staying under a pain level of 4!
She was able to go with us to church yesterday and we all rejoiced!
It was so good to be back in church and sitting together as a family.

Our church family was so wonderful to welcome Rachel back.
We cried several times throughout the morning with many precious saints who are faithfully praying for our daughter.
Our worship time with the Lord and our church family was so sweet and refreshing to our souls.
We thank the Lord for this wonderful gift.

Rachel woke up feeling a little weak this morning but she is determined to make it to school every day, all day long, this week...and next week we get to have Spring Break! Yay!

I have a lot to tell you about Hannah's basketball games and a few fun moments from our weekend. But for now, I've got to get my grades posted for the six weeks, I have A LOT of homework to do for my night classes, and Rachel turns 16 on Saturday, be still my heart!
My blogging may be a little sporadic this week, sorry!

Thank you for dropping by today. Ya'll are such a blessing!!!

Joyfully,
Kristi


PS A BIG thank you to all of you who encouraged me after Friday's post. Thanks for sharing your Mom stories. Rachel and I are back to the same great relationship that we normally have and I haven't eaten a chocolate bar in 2 days. Woo-hoo!

  4. I am so glad to hear all this my friend. But don't go crazy with the denying yourself some chocolate. That's pure craziness! LOL.
    Big hugs.

    This brought to mind the song and Psalm "I was glad when they said unto me Let us go to the house of the Lord"...beautiful, my friend, and I'm rejoicing with you!
