This morning I am posting from chilly Arkansas, which is a bit crazy considering I am supposed to be in Texas right now.
Friday evening we received a call that my grandmother had fallen and broken her shoulder and was in the hospital. My parents happened to be visiting casa de phillips at the time. Saturday morning Evelyn and I piled into their van to return back to Arkansas, while Isaac and Tobe stayed behind to enjoy a boy's weekend.
Currently Grandmother is in the hospital, enjoying the treats delivered every four hours from the pharmacy. Originally it was believed she would have surgery, but it seems like that is not going to be the case right now. She has a long road of healing ahead of her and would appreciate any and all prayers.
Most likely, E. and I will return to casa de phillips tomorrow, completing this whirlwind trip. She quickly settled into the role of "only child" these past 24 hours and has enjoyed having everyone all to herself. However, yesterday after crying for a while in the car trying to fall asleep, she eventually began calling "I-------sic." over and over until she nodded off.
About Me
- Phillips Family
- Casa de Phillips contains one Dr. of Industrial Organizational Psychology, one former special ed teacher now stay-at-home mom, one adorable preschool boy with such a zest for life he can barely sleep past 5am, and one spunky two year old girl whose birth we blogged live (that little fact will likely come back to haunt her in junior high). We all need a little bit of saving sometimes.

We hope your grandmother's shoulder heals completely and as quickly as possible. I'm so glad you and E could be there at this time.
I am so sorry to hear about your grandmother! I hope she heals well!
Poor pitiful Evelyn misses her big brother.
Your family is in my prayers.
praying for your grandmother!
I, too, hope & pray that your grandmother heals well & quickly. I hope you have a safe trip home as well!
So sorry, I'm sure that was a scary phone call. I hope she has a speedy recovery. That is so sweet that Evelyn called out for her brother. :)
I hope your grandmother feels better soon. I am so sorry she fell. She will be in our prayers.
We cut down a small tree in our front yard as well and found someone to remove two stumps and trim the lower branches on our back trees for $250. I wish I could remember who did it, because it seemed like a good deal at the time.
Good luck with the corn. We always had a hard time getting much. Cucumbers and zuchinni and of course tomatoes are always good growers. We had pretty good luck with strawberries as well. Happy planting!
Poor Grandma!! We will put her on our prayer list!!
We will be praying for your grandmother. That can be so scary. Glad you and E got to go spend some time "at home." Have a safe trip back to TX.
