Do you ever have big plans for something and then whoosh.. your plans have changed and they are no longer your own?  Well, we had planned to go camping with our church this weekend and were very much looking forward to it.  Last year we signed up to go and had to cancel due to some health concerns with my dh.  On Tuesday night my dh was outside messing around with a soccer ball and somehow he hurt his foot.  He knew that it was not normal kind of foot pain.  He worked on Wednesday and it hurt still, lots!!  So on Thursday he headed to the doctor's office and found out why it hurts so golly much.  Yep, fractured.  In a strange place.  It is a weight bearing bone, which means that it makes walking extremely painful.  He now has a boot and crutches.  The doctor said that it may be anywhere from 4-6 weeks before he can go without the boot.  His employers have said that he can't come back to work with the boot (due to the nature and safety of his job.)  

What all of this means is that he will be spending lots of time at home.:)  He is going to get to be with us all day for many weeks. :):):) I must admit that it is a little daunting in itself, however,  as he works long hours often and has not participated much in our homeschool.  But, the children and I do look forward to seeing him tons each and every day!!  We are going to try and make the most of every moment with Daddy! 

 I have been looking for ways to delight in the Lord and to delight my dh and children.  I guess that God is giving me more opportunities to do just that!!  Please pray for us as we embark on this unplanned adventure.  I am trying not to let myself worry about the "what ifs" and just remember that God is always faithful!!  He has always met our needs!!  And that He is our ultimate Provider, not my husband!!  I thank Him for His faithfulness.

Have any of you ever had unexpected times of injury, surgery, etc...  Do you have ideas or tips of things that helped you?

God bless!
