As I sat this morning and watched Elly back crawling I had many mixed emotions over this. I guess I never thought that we would be back to crawling with her. I always thought that she would just go forward with running and living life. How clueless I was to think that this could never happen to Elly. That she would never have an illness or get hurt where it would set her back. It makes you step back and reevaluate your relationship with God. That little things like this you take for granted that your daughter can walk and that all is good. When in reality you don't know what will happen from day to day. Look at the past couple of months. As much as we have went through with me having another miscarriage, D&C, surgery and now this with Elly's fracture it makes you thankful for all the big and little things in your life that are good. None of us are terminally ill, we both have good jobs, we have a beautiful daughter that makes you smile at any minute, and we have wonderful family and friends that love us dearly. What more could we ask for. I know there is always that list that I pray for each day to God but in reality those are so miner and fruitless. What I have here and now is what is important. It is amazing how the little things can make us veer off our path from God.
I was looking at one of my entries on the blog from May 26th and how Elly's balance was getting better and her little walk. You forget those little moments until you stop and reflect on life. I need to do this more and praise God for what we have and need not what we want.
