Day 4 Without Keith...

Yesterday was by far the worst of the 5 days. I don't think any of us feel fabulous and Gideon's emotions have been off the chart. I asked him several times what was wrong and he said he didn't know and burst into tears. We were all in bed at 7 and Gideon was asleep by 8 and ME and I were asleep by 8:30! ME woke-up saying she was sick, so I began planning for a long day at home with 2 totally grumpy kids. We had to get dressed because our apartment is freezing! ME said, "Go to school?" I asked her if she wanted to and when she said yes, I quickly got things together and off we went. It wasn't until we arrived and ME burst into tears, did I regret my totally selfish decision. I worried about the kids all morning and dreaded what I would find when I returned to get them...ME in tears and Gideon's locker piled high with wet pants. I met my prayer partner and we prayed for all of our kids and over tea we were reminded how many things we have to be thankful for. On my way back to pick up the kids, I stopped off and bought some movies---4 to be exact to fill up the 8 hours we have until bed time HAHA!!! I was so thankful that when I returned, they were both happy and full of laughter and covered in soup!!! Please pray for Gideon's emotions and that if there is something wrong that we would be made aware of it. Please pray that we would all feel better and have a great afternoon! Please also pray for a safe and speedy return for Keith! We miss you, Keith!!!
