Two weeks into my surgery. I'm on crutches for another week and then in the boot for another 3 or so weeks. It's so hard relying on other to do stuff for me. I have to get rides where ever I go. Send people to the store to buy stuff, they cook and do the laundry for me. Yes this sound all nice and good but I miss my life and I think my family is starting to realize all that I do for them.
Sister Reeves is doing good. She loves being a missionary. She loves teaching other about the gospel. She loves meeting new people. She is growing into such a awesome person.

Giving up control.
So, Jeff had kidney stone surgery 2 weeks ago. So, I did what I do, cook, clean, laundry and ask if he needs anything. This is what I do and what I like doing.
I then had surgery on my ankle on 1-9-14.
I'm not allowed to put any weight on the foot. All the things I'm used to doing for my family I'm not able to do. I have no control over my life and myself right now. I'm stuck in the basement unless someone wants to help me up the stairs. If I need something I have to ask for help (which is something I'm not very good at). My family takes very good care of me, but I just struggle not having control over everything.
I assume it's how God feels when he let go of all us so that we could run our own lives and he looses control over us. He has to accept that we will be OK and we can do what we need to do. Also that we know how to ask him for help when we need it.
