collage made by someone on Facebook Since Saturday morning(aka my last post) alot has happened. That afternoon my father in law had the heart transplant we'd all been praying for!(which went well by the way) Lots of prayers and support from so much family & friends. Then yesterday we went to visit him at the hospital.

the flowers we got him. Before we went in we had to wear a mask, gloves and a gown to make sure we didn't bring any germs inside with us.(that means flowers stayed in the car) I was sooooo surprised at how alert and talkative he was! If you didn't know he had just gotten a heart transplant then you probably wouldn't ever know based on how he was talking. God is good all the time.

not the best quality but the most recent picture a few months before he got admitted to the hospital

This is my mother in law who was always there for her husband. She makes me so proud and sets a really good example of how a wife stands by her husband "in sickness and in health" A really good role model to add to my list of STRONG WOMEN! I love you!! & with all that good that's come with patience and prayer I'll leave you with this quote I found. (alittle combo of motivational monday). Enjoy the start of your week!

I got this image off pinterest

Good Morning!

I found this picture here Lately "sunny San Diego" hasn't been too sunny. Not that I have a problem with it but my mini vacation started yesterday & I was looking forward to some beach days. Oh well, hour long netflix sessions are just as good! My brother in law and husbands good friend have been here since Thursday and obviously he's been very excited. Reminds me of when my sister stayed with us for almost a week and all the laughs we shared. Last night we all went to dinner and then the mall before my husband had to get back home for work. Yay for my vacation and sleeping in! LOL be back later with another post.

At work today our Diversity Team put on a Holocaust remembrance presentation. Its such a sad part of history...& listening to it with preggo emotions at an all time high wasn't any better. My eyes got so watery to the point I ultimately left before it was over. But anyway, that presentation reminded me of a movie I had seen a looooooooooong time ago.  

It's my moms favorite and one of mine too. Despite having to do with the Holocaust & all that surrounds it, the father uses humor to protect his son while they're in the camp. Cant explain too much without giving it all away. Its a tear jerker forsure (You'll laugh too. I promise Im not sending you to watch a sad documentary). & I just found out its on Netflix so Im watching it as I type. If you dont mind watching an almost 2hr movie in Italian while reading subtitles you wont regret it. Pinky swear!
