Hey there blog - I bet you thought I've forgotten you! Not true. Life has once again gotten in the way. There's so much to say (and just a little time since I'm posting from work).
Eddy had to have emergency surgery and have his appendix removed. It was very scary, he's never had surgery before. And if you remember, we weren't on the best terms when it all happened. Desiree actually showed up at David's work Thurs night at about midnight on the 3rd of this month. She said Eddy was in the hospital! David called & woke me up & scared me to death! Brittni & I met David at the hospital, and the next couple days were spent running back & forth. I actually spent Friday night with him by myself since Hunter man got kicked out of there.
Speaking of that precious baby...HE IS WALKING! And I was so afraid he had forgotten me, but when Des brought him in the hospital room, he looked around at everybody, locked eyes with me, smiled the biggest smile & WALKED OVER TO ME & INTO MY ARMS! I couldn't help but cry! That night he got to see his Dapa (which is what he had started calling David). Again, that little boy hadn't forgotten those he loves & who loves him. Long story short, Eddy is fine. It could have killed him if they hadn't removed his appendix, and I won't even go into what that would have done to me. But we are talking again which is wonderful. I just have to learn to let go & let God. And let my children live their lives & be adults.
Next....Jeramiah asked David "for Brittni's hand". And, he did it in front of me. David pulled a James Stewart on him, asked him if he loved her, if he liked her, if he would take care of her. And of course, before he gave his permission, he told him if he ever laid a hand on her or hurt her, he would have to answer to him!
Now - now ....we have a wedding to plan. Brittni & I spent last Sunday afternoon at David's Bridal, and she found THE DRESS! I have tons of pictures on my phone, but I think I want to wait for the real pictures from the wedding. We finally got the place locked down, it's at West Ridge Baptist Church in Fayetteville. The same pastor that married David & I, Brenda & Ben, and Eddy & Desiree has said he'd be honored to marry my daughter. That's a big deal to me. Plus, she's getting married in the church where David & I attended when we were teenagers! With the help of her Nee Nee Brenda, her Aunt Tina...well, lots of her family, it's going to be BEAUTIFUL! And although we don't have a lot of money, I think between us all, we can pull off her princess wedding she's always dreamed of!
Work is still the same, chaos. Every day. I'm just trying to hang in there. And I couldn't without David's love & support. He lets me vent & worry to him, and listens & offers encouragement that makes it bearable. This too shall pass...this too shall pass....
Til next time - me
