A Step Back

For some reason, Evan started to throw up again on Friday morning and continued through the weekend. When this all started up again it seems that he must have torn something because he started getting blood in his JP drain and it appeared that there might have been some blood in his stomach too. So as you probably can guess, Evan didn’t make it up to East canyon with me but he is starting to feel better again. He has been able to keep his stomach at bay and there is no longer any blood. The doctor has been out of town but will return on Wednesday so there is still no word on when he feels Evan can start eating again. It has been hard to keep the smell of food down so that it isn’t a struggle for Evan. My sweet daughter had Cody and I over for Sunday dinner so that I didn’t have to cook anything at home. She has become quite the little homemaker and is having fun decorating her new little apartment. They are living in the basement of Matt’s parents home while they are gone. Matt’s dad got a job in Pennsylvania and will be there for the next 9 years so Matt and JayDee have a long time to save for their own home before they have to move.

We are still having a struggle in selling the construction house in Riverton and so it is looking more and more like we are going to have to put our own home on the market. The bank is saying that we must have the construction house sold by the end of this month or they will foreclose on both houses. This Saturday some of our sweet neighbors are going to help me de-clutter our home and get it ready to sell and I am going to put up the signs. The plan at this point is if we can sell our house then we would move into the construction house and continue to try to sell it. Once it is sold then we would see if we can find a small home or condo to buy. This is something that we had hoped would never have to happen but unfortunately it is not our will but the Lords will that must be done. We know that it is going to be for our good and growth somehow, we just have to let the Lord take control and follow his lead.
