Saturday's Roller Coaster

I've been pretty emotional today, I can't seem to kick it!  Mat's just gone to the Messiah Sing-In with his family and I'm hoping I can hold it together until he gets home.  Maddie and Isaac went with him, so I have the little kids here. 

We were able to go to the temple again this morning, thanks to Amy, an AWESOME young adult in our ward who tends for free when it is for the temple.  I so appreciate her and her willingness to help us out in this way!  I'm not sure there will be time to go again before surgery on Friday, so I'm very grateful for the opportunity today.  While there, we ran into our former bishop from the ward I loved so much (that was dissolved--previous post).  I feel supported where ever I go!

After that, I was able to go to lunch with an old friend Diana and her friend Jan, whose done breast cancer . . . twice.  She gave me tons of information and answered questions, which I appreciate because I have so many!  I've known Diana, literally, since birth.  Our parents were friends before we were born, and she was born just 5 days before me and my sister were born.  We lost each other for a while after we got married, but have reconnected which makes me HAPPY!  Diana, we can't ever get lost again, OK?

After I got home, I got the baby down for a nap and I managed to get one too.  Mat took the kids to the library so the house would be quiet.  Man, I love him.  How did I manage to get a husband like him?  He is my rock right now, I don't know what I'd do without him.  Our marriage will be stronger through all of this.  : )  Please keep us in your prayers!
