It hasn't been the best couple of week's for us but we're hoping it will start getting better soon. My sweet grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer, but she's a tough woman and been through many heart breaks and trials, I know she will do just fine.
Jared lost his best friend of 30 years, we laid him to rest yesterday. He usually hates funerals but he was a pallbearer at this one, it was one of the saddest but heartwarming services I've ever attended, it was so full of life and love just as "Hopp" was. Boogie Mccain played Amazing Grace on his harmonica, but let everyone know before hand that he doesn't play gospel he plays Blues but because it was Jon, he would make a special attempt. There are no words to describe the beauty that came out of that harmonica yesterday. Every note I know made it to heaven to "Hopp". No one could keep a dry eye for that. At the grave side they had a man play the bag pipes as we said our final goodbyes to Jon. We stood in the cold watching his sweet parents try and hold it together for their baby boy. They are wonderful people and very strong, you can't help but love every one of them. I felt her pain as she had to tell her baby goodbye and I thought to my self, how can you do it, but I know so many people who have. Jared has never lived more than 2 miles from Jon most of his life, they have been friends even when they lost touch, they picked things back up like they never missed a beat. I know it will be an adjustment for Jared but I know he can handle it, he is strong and he thinks back to all the fun things they've done and smiles.
Last night I felt lymphnodes on Collin's neck and scared us to death luckily he is fine, he had a hard fall Saturday and has been getting over a cold so they are just doing their job and either helping relieve fluid from a bruise or fighting off the rest of his infection.
Monday Jared has to have his gallbladder out, I know this will be painful for him but he's already in so much pain from issues. I hope it will relieve all of his issues and he will be back to his old self again. I meet with my new boss on Tuesday, I hope everything goes well I am very nervous about meeting him. Hoping he likes me and everything turns out well!
I am just ready to get the next few weeks over with and get on with the Holidays!! The twins have already found their presents some of them and it's getting hard to keep them hidden!!! I cannot wait to see their sweet faces light up for Christmastime!!
I know I wrote a lot tonight, I have had a lot on me the past few weeks. I did not mean to write a book. Thank you to all who read and follow my blog!!! Love you all!
Praying for your grandmother. Love you! -- Melissa and Mark
