happy easter.
i haven't had the chance to post on what my easter was like so i will do that now. all in all, i probably had one of the best easter sundays of my life. that is extreamly strange considering what happened.
the plan had been for traci to come to my family's easter dinner with me after church, but that wasn't exactly what happened. about the time church ended she got kind of faint and we had to take her out into the hall. to jump ahead a bit, she had to be taken to the hospital, not exactly where i thought the day would take us. i really didn't know what to expect while i followed her mom to the hospital, but it would be safe to say that i was more than a little frightened. i felt helpless. i wanted to do something to make her better and it drove me crazy not being able to do anything.
praise god she came out of it fine. you might be asking how this easter could be anything but bad. well once i found out that she would be fine i had a wave of relief wash over me like i've never felt before. i think that the time i spent sitting next to that little hospital bed she was in, after i found out she would be ok, ranks up there as one of the best times i've ever had with anyone.
i am happy just to know someone filled with as much joy as traci. she brings a new definition to the word wonderful. i pray the the faith she already has grows and that she will be overcome with a boldness in that strenghtened faith.
i love you all so very much. if you could keep me in prayer i would appreciate it.
