Thanks for your help Brant!!

This week has been one of the busiest week's that I've had in a while. Two months ago when I went to my Rheumatologist, I kinda got in trouble with her and Marty. She had told me "no exercising yet!" and the truth came out that I had been secretly lifting weights! Not for competition or anything, just a little here and there..ya know, I'd go out to the garage to get something out of the deep freezer and do a quick set, that's all...but I had stopped cardio..for the most part! A/w I promised I'd chill and let my body try to get used to these sleeping pills and get the rest that it needs and whatever else "no exercise" is supposed to do to help. A/W really, since friday I have been going, going, going and I'M FEELING IT!! Monday night, every muscle in my body ached and I was totally exhausted. I really didn't feel like cooking at all! Marty had a client after work so I knew that he wouldn't be home early enough to grill, so I asked Brant if he wanted to grill for me. He totally prepared the grill, started it and cooked all by himself (I did supervise)!!! I got to lay on the couch for a while and when Rissa woke up from her nap, he got her for me and played with her and got her cup and snack so I wouldn't have to get up. In between all of this he was also getting his stuff ready for baseball. I am so thankful for him!! Thank you Brant!! I appreciate you so much! It's hard to be the oldest, sometimes, and Brant has definately had some responsibilities that other kids haven't had with a sibling with a disability. The Lord knew what he was doing when he gave us the children that we have! I am so grateful for each of them and I love them so much!!
Brant the Grill Master!! He loves to grill with Marty and has not only learned, but remembered everything that he has been taught.


Rissa's wearing one of Jacob's t-sirts...or "E-ub"..as she says it!
