Some Things I Don't Know
...I don't know what is going through my 4 year old's mind, especially when she puts the portable phone in my glass of ice water.
...I don't know when the doctor said my expanders would be attached to steel discs, but apparrently they are. When I told him I felt like I had steel plates smashed into my chest, he said, "You do." But neither Mark, nor I, remember being told that. Perhaps that was ommitted so he could also avoid telling me this procedure might hurt and might keep on hurting. The energizer bunny version of reconstruction, I guess. :-)
...I don't know how Saturn can fix our ignition so the key doesn't stick, and now the only key that DOES work is the one that DIDN'T work before they tore it all apart. Furthermore, the copy of the non-working key that didn't work before they fixed it still doesn't work. And, I guess it goes without saying that the key thad DID work before they fixed it, now sticks. Go figure.
...I don't know how many more calls I can make before Saturn either begins blocking our number or begins answering me on a first-name basis. :-)
...I don't know where Annaleigh learned to quote Genesis 1:1, but she recited it perfectly the other day. Pretty impressive, but I wish I could take credit for teaching it to her!
...I don't know the mysteries of God, but I continue to see Him at work in our family and through our church family. I am so grateful.
...I don't know where to begin with thank you notes, or how I will find words to truly express my gratitude for the way people have touched my life deeply through my breast cancer journey. I want to do something creative, but not dorky. :-)
...I don't know "what is up" with my persistant thirst and dry tongue since surgery. No matter how much I drink, I seem to always crave more. I am grateful, though, that I can drink water again, which was not an option (according to my stomach) during chemotherapy.
...Lastly, I don't know the current price of portable phones, but I guess I am about to find out.
