Dealing with Disappointment

My son, Kevin, has broken his foot. At first they said he doesn't need a cast just stay on crutches should be up and running in about 3 weeks. Now 2 weeks later they have casted it, and say 4 - 6 weeks from today. It's frustrating for him, who is in triple A hockey as a goalie and a very active boy but he has been so positive about this situation. He came after he found out it was broken and said, "I am going to make the best of this." Me on the other hand was quite miffed (is that a word?) about all these change-yes you can walk on it in a week- should be playing hockey by Christmas,-oh, we need to cast it,-now 4 - 6 weeks with a cast.... but I have learned that it's okay to be frustrated, disappointed, even upset and angry as long as I don't stay there. So I talked it thru, prayed and now I am counting all my blessings. I have a wonderful family, we are healthy, we have love in our house, we have valued friends and acquaintances, we have cars to get us places, clothes, toys etc, the list goes on and on. Actually we are very, very blessed!! Thank you Jesus for all your blessings and for understanding our disappointments and helping us work them thru!!
