We're on the mend.......


Well, it seems as though the Jones family is finally starting to get well. Olivia is sleeping through the night now and Jason is starting to feel better thank goodness. I think it lasted about 3 weeks!! I hope none of you get it. Anyway, Monday is my first Anatomy & Physiology II test for the semester. I am really nervous about it. I thought I knew the material fairly well and then he reviewed yesterday and I thought I was going to cry. Evidently, I haven't studied hard enough. I did not know half of the questions he went over. I thought I was going to puke (or cry!) Anyway, I am so stressed about it I dreamed I made a 64 on the test. Too funny. I would just die if I made a 64! I hope the Lord is not trying to prepare me or something. Seriously, I would be devasted. I am really sufffering from stress this semester for some reason. I usually can handle stress fairly well, but not this semester. I have a continous twitch in my eyes. They take time about twitching. And I know it's stress because I am fine when I get up in the mornings, and then when the first sign of stress hits, the eyes start a twitching and I get a headache. Oh well, maybe now that Olivia and dad feel better, the twitch will tone it down.

If You do as well on your test as you seem to do at loving, caring and taking such good care of your family, I am sure you will do a TERRIFIC job.
Good Luck!

I am glad you all are getting better. Just take a deep breath. You will do fine on your test. Well can you believe the second thing I have ordered for Olivia did not come either. I ordered her something on Etsy twice and the first person told me she already sold the item by mistake and so I bought something similiar from another person and they stiffed me. I can't believe I have tried twice to get her something and it just kills me. Maybe I will see something at Disney. Anyway, good luck and take care of them sick ones. Love you!

Slowdown....

I just want to tell everyone now, my posts may start slowing down drastically when school starts back. I start on the 15th (next Thursday) and I do have some rather difficult classes this time. Also, I will be studying for the hesi test that I have to take if February, so my blog life will be taking a back seat for a while... I am not going to quit blogging though. I do have plans for a couple of posts in the near future, I just can't keep up like I am used to when classes start. I just wanted everyone to know why I am suddenly not leaving comments on your blog or not updating as frequently...Please keep me in your prayers as I am studying for this hesi test. This test will determine whether I get into the nursing program or not and I have A LOT of competition.... Just want you all to know what's going on with me when my blog is not being updated that much.... Love ya friends.......

Please keep our "Little Livie" in your prayers.....

Today we will be leaving at 5:00 a.m. to head to Knoxville for a round of tests.. Olivia has to have surgery on May 12th for a branchial cleft anomaly on her chest and just above her ear. I am dreading it... I am trying to act like it is no big deal to appear strong for her, but I am scared to death!!! Today we have to go and have a fistulagram and a renal ultrasound done... The fistulagram involves shooting dye through the little holes (sinus cavities that didn't fully develop) to see where they go so the surgeons know all details before the actual surgery begins.... The renal ultrasound is to check her kidney function because sometimes when kids have these anomalies, kidney problems are also involved!! Let's pray we don't have that problem... Like I said, I am scared to death!! But, the kidney ultrasound will relieve my worries of the China Milk scandal where a bunch of kids adopted from China have been found to have kidney issues from tampered milk... (If you don't k...

"Pray to Jesus"....

Image
So the past few weeks, Jason and I have decided to try to get in the habit of saying a prayer before we all eat dinner at night. I'll admit, this is one habit Jason and I never did that we should have already been doing. Anyway, at night I will say "Oh, we need to say our prayers." Olivia just loves it. Everyone at the table ends up saying a prayer (at Olivia's request). But I just had to post, every one of her prayers start with "Pray to Jesus".. EVERY ONE! And if we forget to say them, (yes, we forget) she says "We need to pray to Jesus!" It is the sweetest thing ever! She always makes us close our eyes and cross our fingers together. So tonight, I'll admit, I peeked to see what kind of face she was making during these prayers, and it was the cutest thing ever... So, I got up and got the camera ~ and then got in trouble!! Hehe.... :-) Our baby is growing up!!! AMEN!!!!!!!!
