Life is perfect! :)

I have had sinus problems for the last couple years.  I went to a specialist a few years ago and he did some testing and discovered I had problems with my sinus and we would eventually have to do surgery to go in and open them up.  At the time I was too young and my sinus were to close together to do anything with them so I had a standing prescription with him.  I was on a prescription at least once a month for the last few years.  But it just kept getting worse.  I had this last infection for about six months and had been on about four prescriptions but it was not going away.  So after a few months of misery I made an appointment with him again to discuss getting the surgery done.  After another CT scan he discovered one side of my sinus's were clogged and the other side had a cyst. He decided it was time to do the surgery and open them up to help me feel better.  My surgery was set for June 9th.  I was so ready to start feeling better.  I had been so drained and felt like crap for the last six months I was just ready to get back to normal and have energy again.  I was not nervous at all I just wanted it to all be over.  The day before I had the surgery I started to think about everything which in return made me really nervous and very emotional.  Jake was able to give me a blessing that night which really helped me calm down.  We had Addalynn sleepover at my parent’s house that night so we did not have to drag her out early in the morning.  I had no idea that would be so hard for me to be away from her for a night.  When we came home I had to close the door to her room and could not look at anything of hers because I would just start crying.  I was just emotionally and physically drained.  That night I only slept about an hour and a half I was so nervous and had so much on my mind.   
            That night it hit me…. I am so blessed and so lucky.  I have the best husband in the entire world.  He has put up with so much and he never complains.  The last few weeks he has worked at least 65 hours and after a long day at work he comes home and the first thing he does is take Addalynn and asks what can he do to help me out. He always goes above and beyond.  He is willing to work as much as he has to so I am able to stay at home with our daughter and I don’t have to work.  The last few weeks he goes to work in the morning he leaves we go to school then he goes back to work.  It was really hard for me to have him gone that much I had to keep reminding myself he is doing this for us and not only me and Addalynn but my dad as well.  My dad is so busy and Jake has been working this much to help him out.  I don’t know very many men out there that would do that.  Jake and I had definitely had our struggles the last few years.  We have had a lot of good times as well as the hard times.  When I look back at all of the struggles and trials we have had it makes me realize why we are as strong as we are.  I love this man so much.  I love him more and more each day.  I am so lucky to have married such a wonderful man that cares and loves his family as much as he does.       
            The biggest blessing I have is our baby girl Addalynn.  My mom always said when I was pregnant I would have a hard baby because I had such an easy pregnancy well… she was wrong! I have the best baby in the entire world.  She is the sweetest little thing.  She is so easy going and always has a sweet little smile on her face.  At one point in time she had a double ear infection and was getting in her first two teeth at the same time and the only reason we knew she was sick was because she had a really high fever.  She sleeps about twelve hours a night and takes at least two sometimes three naps during the day.  She is that dream baby that everyone wants and I am lucky enough to have.  I love this little girl so much she has stolen my heart. 
            I want to thank my parents for helping me out the last few days.  They have taken Addalynn for me so I could rest.  They are the best parents I could ever ask for!! So thank you and I love you so much!!
            Everything is going so good in my life right now.  I am so blessed and so lucky!!
