My husband has been so amazing through all this, never complaining about me being something short of a mental patient. He just does stuff, he just picks up the slack, he just is assuming the role of superman while superwoman is on vacation somewhere. I love that about our marriage, we really do try and take care of each other. Josh has been so amazing keeping himself busy, and assuming the super responsible big brother role quiet nicely. In fact today I was frantically trying to finish cleaning in the laundry room and the baby starts crying. I look out the laundry room door in the direction of the baby and see Josh laying next to him. Josh looks over at me, before I have a chance to leave the laundry room, and says "don't worry about it mom, I have got him, finish what you are doing." Then Josh starts singing to the baby, he stops crying, and I was able to work for another 30 mins while Josh entertained the baby.
I received a letter in the mail from my Grandpa, it brought me to tears. I feel so much love and support around me! Trevor's Mom is coming into town to help out for 5 days and I have just had so many friends and family help me in so many ways. I am attaching a copy of the letter my grandfather sent me, how could you not feel loved after reading it. Thank you all for your love, support, and prayers. I really do feel like I couldn't get through this without all of you.

I'm praying for you Chrystal. All the way over here in Texas. The store about Josh almost made me cry, what a wonderful little boy. Kyla just yells at Kash to "shhhh"... lovely. Maybe someday...
What a sweet letter and a great Grandpa. I know I've been praying for you. Don't worry, everything will go great. It's OK to feel a little bit crazy, especially in your current circumstances. Don't think you need to "buck up" -- just get through this and take the much needed rest that your body and your emotions need. Everybody who loves you and cares about you will continue to pick up the slack until you get back to your superwoman self. Until then...relax. And remember what I said -- that anti-anxiety stuff before surgery can make ALL of the difference. Don't worry, you'll do amazing! Love you!
Families are such a comfort! That letter is so sweet and I am sure was a comfort through your stressful time, I am glad to hear that the tumor wasn't cancerous! I can't believe all that you have been through with your pregnancy and tumor, but you are a very strong women so I knew you would pull through. I hope you heal quickly!
