This Week with the Madsen's

This week we have
-built snow caves
-shopped for something NEW at RcWilley
-built birdhouses with our kids
-enjoyed the Super Bowl...me & the kids had a party while Daddy went with my brothers to Paaaarty!
-Kye has mastered "dressing" up in blizzare outfits
-Kye cried as Emma & Zach headed off to school Monday morning
-Zach, Kye, & I had lunch with Daddy at City Creek...i love that place!!!
-we've snuggled together & read a LOT of books...my fav thing to do!
-Kye slept in until 8:15 on Tuesday morning... He is ALWAYS my early riser,so I had to go make sure he was still breathing---i love watching my sleeping babies!!!
-Emma's ears are bugging her again...they were clogged...we were given a crazy expensive steroid ear drops that had cleared them up & now LIFE is too loud for her :(
Last, but not least.....
-Al had surgery to remove a swollen lymph node in his neck...it's been there since December...it's hard & not normal, so as our Dear Dr. Stock said, "it belongs in a jar...not a throat!" {Dr. Stock did Emma's tubes 1 year ago....we "know him well...or he knows us well!!}
Al's in surgery as I'm typing, so hopefully all goes well & the lymph will be nothing.!! ps....he's met his deductible....it's ONLY February....bring life on!!!
Life with the Madd-o's is GOOD! We are happy to have insurance & count our blessings that "all these" medical things didn't happen while Alan was unemployed for 2 years!!! We are blessed to have the life we do & such supportive family! Thanks Mumsy-Wumsy for coming up EXTRA early to watch & take care of our kidd-o's! Thanks for all the extra prayers in our behalf...don't be offended if you didn't know about this surgery...Al wanted it to be very HUSH-HUSH, so I respected his wishes...to some extent! :)
I am grateful for the way life plays out. It's amazing how I know I'm truly known by my Heavenly Father! Life doesn't just happen by coincidence...it truly is inspired by a greater power!!!
As in Gordon B. Hinckley's words... "it WILL all work out!"
