Recovering

I had a partial hysterectomy on Monday. I am home and recovering. I am hoping that this will make me feel so much better. Dave is taking very good care of me. He and the kids are getting me whatever I need so that I don't have to get up very often. Our sweet friends are bringing us dinner each night, and we are so thankful for that. I feel OK until I try to get up. They were able to do a laproscopic surgery so I have 3 incisions on my tummy. I am hoping to start school next Wednesday. So if everyting goes well we should be able to get started. I did all my preparations last week so we would be ready. Samuel's leg is healing nicely. He gets his stitches out on Friday. He said he is going to go swimming and take a long bubble bath after he gets them out. We haven't been able to get the incision wet, so he has been getting sponge baths this week. Thank you to all who have prayed for our family this last week.
