The Drain
Monday, 12/05/08 at 8:37 pm by Anita MacDonaldEver get that feeling that you are running on empty? Part of me (actually most of me) doesn’t even have the energy to update this site.
Anyway - we are home and Aria is much better and we are on once daily ABX.
I just feeling like crawling into a corner and….well not sure what. Anyway this is probably the lowest we have been in awhile. But hey, that’s life right!

HI Anita
Sadly that is life and we all know that you are actually far too busy to crawl into a corner, however, you are absolutely entitled to feel like it. Love to you all.

Hey anita, we’re praying earnestly for you!
I was just reading and meditating on James 1:2-4 this morning.
‘Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.’
It’s so hard to find joy in some kinds of trials but I’ll be praying that you would still know God’s joy in the despair that you are feeling right now, and that by His strength and grace, you may persevere.
In Christ’s love, Jo

Hey chicky,
I feel so helpless to help. I know the crawling into a corner feeling, that’s all I wanted to do after Isaac, its a horrible feeling and you feel so powerless.
We love you lots and you know how much prayer you’re getting at the moment!
Truely, if there is anything you need ask.
I can take Asher and Aria for a walk for an hour if you need a sleep. Hehe, that would look funny, Will in a pack and your two in a stroller… people would think I was real keen on kids. (not that Im not!
love and hugs
