Pain and Aggravation

First of all, let me say that I know I am blessed. These little troubles in this world will pass and are nothing compared to what Christ went through. Plus my troubles are light compared to other folks I know who are looking at their last days because of cancer...not getting to see their kids grow up and get married, not getting to see their grandchildren. It's sad but we have that certainty that we will be reunited one day in heaven. Thank You, Lord, for that peaceful assurance.
I am going through lots of oral pain every day thanks to a broken wisdom tooth that I have a temporary crown on. It's causing my whole jaw to hurt thanks to my weird bite. I know this shall pass but I hate taking pain medicine around the clock. Well the Lord's teaching me endurance. I'm such a baby and I need to learn how to tolerate pain more than I have in the past. Wonder what the reason is for that?
Well, in the meantime we are enjoying watching our daughter grow and grow with that future grandchild. I think I want to be called "grandmommy". I like that! :)
