Blessings!

So it's been a little while since I checked in. And things have been going along very well here in our home! Riley is doing great! He is healing nicely and even startted going back to work on Monday- he was getting stir crazy! I can't believe it was a month ago that we were doing Dr. appointments and finding out he was goign to have open heart surgery again. In that time we have had SO MANY blessings! And this post is to name all those blessings by name. Heather watched our kids as we left to go to the ER, and then IMC. Our Bishop met us at the ER and gave Riley a blessing. Riley's Uncle Scott has an AWESOME wife! She used travel points she had to put us up in a hotel close to the hospital for 2 nights, and my wonderful dad put us up for one. It was a HUGE blessing to be that close to Riley. My little sister, Anisa, came and stayed with me the Thursday- Sunday that Riley had his surgery and helped me with my lil Jaxie when he couldn't go into the ICU. Marci and Chad and the kids hosted my lil girl for the whole weekend, and Jaxon for a night- He broke though, and needed Mommy after one night LoL Riley's retro Ride buddies went ABOVE and BEYOND and jumped my battery the day it died at the Dr's office, then took it and fixed the AC compressor, and replaced the battery- and charged Riley nothing! Nothing!!! They are so wonderful! Our wonderful ward brought in dinner, and have helped us so much with the trials we've been given. Riley had several wonderful friends come and see him- Justin, Jeremy, and Rob. Riley's parents were an awesome support as well! Between rides up to the hospital, helping us when I had to go back to work, and taking care of some burdens that seem small, but really were huge- they have been wonderful. My parents are not physically here, but the emotional support, the daily phone calls and concerns, and helping with other obligations as well, have been invaluable to me! And then the support and prayers of our other family and friends have been felt and appreciated! And of course Heavenly Father for placing these amazing people into our lives. And helping us ( mostly me!) have faith in hard times. I know I will need it more and more as we go on with life. Thank you all so much again. We love you all!!!!
