Pampered

During the past two weeks, hubby travelled for work out of the country and while he was gone, I was blessed with royal treatment. He left very early on a Monday morning, but the Sunday night before he left, our pastor and his wife stopped by to visit. This was the second time hubby was going out of the country for work, but the first time he was gone for only a week. Even though everyone was worried about me taking care of MoMo alone in my expecting state, I assured them all that I would be fine. However, this time around they were all more worried because I was further along and hubby was going to be gone longer.

The reason for our pastor's visit with his wife was to present me with two options:


Option 1- Move in with them for the 2weeks hubby was out and be catered to totally.

Option 2- Their daughter would come over every couple of days and help me with whatever I needed done in the house.

Trust me when I say I didn't think for too long before choosing option 1. I decided I was going to move in with them the next day. Lol. Hubby was very surprised I agreed to an option at all not to even talk of agreeing to a move-in option. I usually don't like to bother people, but they were offering and heaven knows I needed the break, so I took it! Living with the pastor and his family was so much fun and very relaxing. The pastor dropped off and picked up MoMo from daycare every day she went, his wife gave her a bath every evening and got her ready and fed her every morning before daycare. I had a meal waiting for me every day I got off from work. I mean it was amazing! Besides the help I was getting, it was great to have company. I watched a good number of movies with the family and also had some really good conversations. MoMo didn't miss out on the fun, they have three very well-mannered kids, ages 13(girl- Eriife), 8(boy- Mofe), and 7(boy- Ini). MoMo had a blast with all of them, especially Ini. They formed a very special bond and it was really cute watching them interact. They also stuffed their home with snacks they knew she would like. 

Unfortunately MoMo got a little sick the second week and the pastor's wife and I caught the bug too. I felt so bad because even though she was not feeling well she still took care of MoMo and made sure I got rest. I got very sick and had to leave work on Wednesday, and I called out Thursday and Friday. I felt miserable! I'm still not fully recovered but I'm way better. Thank God! They took care of the both of us so much, it really touched my heart. 

I am so grateful to God for surrounding me with such selfless people and thankful to the pastor and his family for their love. So many things they did for us within those two weeks that I didn't mention, such as me putting the kids to work! I mean they ran so many errands around the house for me such as getting a drink of water every time I asked! May God bless their hearts. Lol. Just so so thankful. Hubby got back Friday night, so we're back home now. I about sent him back. Lol. They raised the bar though so he's working hard these days. Ha! 

BTW! Yesterday, I marked 3months working at Wally World! Look at that! How time flies huh? I'm learning SO much, probably more than my brain can take. Lol. It's all goody though, very thankful for an awesome opportunity!

We went out to a lake here the weekend we stayed with them for  a baptism for 2 church members and had some good fun while out there!
