Andrew & I are all packed & ready to head out early tomorrow. The kids are already with their respective grandparents. Simon is with Brenda - my mother-in-law. Rachel is with my mom & dad. Hopefully they won't forget us while we're gone. We'll probably be leaving around 6 am and hopefully arriving around 730 pm (still Central time). Andrew is a good driver, so I'll be reading in the passenger seat. Here's the run-down of what I know is happening this trip.

Tuesday
845 am Meet w/ the plastic surgeon. At this meeting I'll hopefully find out that I'll be able to do the reconstruction I want. I should also be able to get some idea of how long the surgery will take. I'll also find out what size I'll be able to be.

I plan on trying to update the blog & my facebook. However, I don't know if I will feel like it or have time. So keep the prayers coming & check in on the blog. Thanks!
Also, since Lenten time is growing nearer I'm trying to get geared up. I'm going to miss part of it, but I'm going to try to do a few things. Here's my biggie: Go to Confession. I'm hoping to get in the habit of doing it more often. Here's a good examination of conscience and general guide for Confession. Even if you're not Catholic, Lent is the best time to try to prepare yourself for God. He sacrificed so much for us during Lent, we should sacrifice some for Him!

Child of God, oh how the merciful Jesus does love you; ah yes, Jesus' promise to us is that we will not be left orphaned. You have nothing to fear but fear itself! Erika love reaches beyond all boundaries and has reached perhaps thousands; your walk with God and your ever heartbeat beat are the heartbeats of Jesus! Be assured of our prayers, be assured of our love and know, I do believe in miracles!!! "Jesus, I Trust in You! Jesus, I SURRENDER! Father, Son and Spirit ONE, I give you "all" that I am. Amen+ In his Divine Mercy, I am...Martha, a friend in Christ, for...LIFE!
