I know that it is not polite to brag or be proud but I am foregoing this social faux-pa. I need your prayers. Faith's birthday is April 12th and she has decided what kind of day and party she wants. Last year Faith had a big party with all her school friends at the beach. This year's request blew me away.
Faith came to me with her birthday idea written down on a piece of paper. The paper read,
"My Birthday Adventure with My Mom." (on Saturday since Easter is on my birthday)
1. Out to Breakfast
2. Pedicures
3. Shopping for new shoes
4. Picnic in the Park
5. Shopping for an Easter dress for my mom
6. Go see the new Hannah Montana Movie
7. Go out to dinner.
WOW!!! I couldn't believe it. It just goes to show that my illness has affected my children but yet they still want their "Mommy" and I just cried when I read this. I know that this will probably be the last time my daughter wants to spend her birthday with just me. She is growing up and I know how things change. My prayer is that our relationship will continue to be special no matter how old she is!
OK, NOW FOR THE PRAYER AMO!!!!
My spine specialist reported that I have really injured my hip and left hip joint, my lower back and my neck. I am in so much pain all the time but I need prayer that I can make my little girl's birthday wish come true.
I told her that I may not be able and she said, "That's OK Mom, we can paint our own nails, have a picnic on the front grass, go shopping in your closet for the perfect dress, and rent a movie and eat popcorn." What a peach and what a treasure.
SO PLEASE PRAY!!!! Thank you!
