MONDAY THOUGHT...

Well, here we are at Monday again, and I feel stumped for a thought of the week! It has been a hard start of the week. Missy's husband Phil suffered from an aneurism of the brain yesterday. He is in the ICU, but seems to be OK. They are keeping him there to run tests and observe him. We of course are praying for Phil, Lisa and the kids. Hawkley who is 10, and witnessed his mom's brain tumor, is I am sure upset to say the least. Phil is awake in the ICU and things look good. My sweet mother in law is having a tough time on her new chemo, and it is hard to see her so sick. I am so thankful we live so close to them so we can help out. Now, I know I promised a big enriching thought once a week, but the only one that keeps coming to my mind is from that old cartoon comic, THE FAR SIDE: (it's not as good without the picture, but I will try to explain...) A student is raising his hand in class, and says, "Teacher, MY BRAIN IS FULL." I kind of feel like that today~ I guess I'm wierd, but it still makes me laugh!
I pray that all of you are well and happy and for Susan and Phil. I know the Lord is mindfull of us and wants to bless and comfort us. Have a great week and thanks for all the comments guys, they make my day when I read them, love, jenny
P.S. for an actually great supply of thoughts, please go to LDS.ORG and read the conference talks from October. I printed off a few tonight to read to myself to "un-fill" my brain.:)

Hi Jen,
Thanks for taking such good care of mom! I'm so sorry to hear about Phil - keep me posted on how he's doing.
Love,
Maria

I think I know what you mean about feeling "full"! I'll keep your family in my prayers!

Hang in there. Remember, "This too shall pass". At least that's what I keep telling myself.
