Oh the Challenges and Trials

Today has been a sad day at the Gerhart House. Last night we lost our beloved Grandfather he is the ROCK of the Gerhart family. We will all miss his hearing his stories of how Tom would do this or how Mary Jane and Nancy would do that. He has such a big heart and always had so much love to spread around. When I married Bud he welcomed me into the family like I was one of the kids as he did with Angie and Eric. His cooking was the best, Thanksgving with his turkey soup!!!! You see so much of grandpa in Charlotte, Ben, Bud, and Sarah. This year has been a tough one on the family. We have lost two very speacial people that mean a whole lot to this family. They will be greatly missed and the love that they had will never be broken. We are dealing with the lose as most people do, but at the same time we know that we will see them again soon. Grandpa Gerhart : loving, devoted, kind, giving, gentle, big hearted, husband, grandfather, and great grandfather to 7 beautiful children, Marion, Josh, Kadin, Kianna, Alexander, Ethan and dear sweet Carly. We love you and we will all miss you!!!!!

A very BAD week!!!

I had my surgery yesterday and let me tell u it was not that great. Pitocin is the worst stuff in the world!!!!! I dont even remember cramping this bad after having a baby oh yeah wait i had something else to worry about other than the pain. And the smart ass coments I have been getting is well yeah you are gonna be in pain you just had surgery what do you exepect!!!! If i hear that i again i am just gonna tell them all were they could just take a hike off the BIGGEST CLIFF there is !!!!!! But other than that my surgery went well. i think we have finally gotten my womenly problems undercontrol. So right now at this present time I am loaded on PERCOCETS!!! They make me alittle grouchy, but they sure do take away the pain. Yesterday was the first day of school and of course i didn't get to take them to school and alex has cried for two days he is just having alot of stress in his little life. He doesnt understand the whole picture you know and of course he is just playing his parent's but alex is feeling very overwehlemed and very unsetteled that is mostly our fault. i am babbling i am sorry it is because of the medicine..... But at this time that is how i am feeling and i really dont care If i have offened anyone!!!!!
