| Amazing...........three more days and I will gain a son. Alyssa and Rob will be married Saturday afternoon. What a glorious day!! To be honest, with my crazy week, I'm glad we only have three more days of non-stop work as well as fun. Family will be here from Colorado and hopefully Washington, Oregon and Arizona. We'll see. I need to get busy helping Alyssa before she decides her plate is too full. | | |
| This has been a trying week. First, God answered the prayers of a little 8 year old girl and her heart is full, as is mine. I'm so happy that the trip to SLC worked out for my friends.
Now I'm running to God's arms to be held up in this trying time. My Anna is diagnosed with cancer, at first they thought it was pretty well confined and now they are offering very little hope. My heart is broken as I am not close (location) to my dad to be with him in this time. I know that he and Anna have also run to God's arms for comfort and are feverently on their knees asking for a miracle. God is a miracle maker and we are asking! As much as I already know that God is in control it still hurts and is very difficult to keep from crying. Dad and Anna are so happy together and the thought of that ending very soon is painful. I know that I need to look up and I'm trying, unfortunately, I can't seem to see through the tears.
Please pray for us. I've been in God's lap so many times in my life and I'm needing to be held at this time, again.

| What a beautiful day! The sky appears blue, the ground appears white, houses are dark as late nights are being slept off getting ready for this special day. (Anyway my house is dark, it's great when the kids get older and not quite so anxious to race the tree for their wrapped treasures.) God is so good to us. He made this very day possible. He brought us His Son.....what have you brought Him? Merry Christmas to all. | | |
| God continues to show He is in control! Please continue to pray for the Allred's, Schmitts, Myers', and the Pipers. There are great needs in each of these families. Tell those around you how you feel about them. Don't chance this being your last face to face with the individual and they not knowing how you 'really' feel. | | |
| When life gives you lemons, make lemonade............can we change the drink, please. Life is challenging, the one constant is God continues to hold each of us in His hand. Please pray for the Allred family that they feel each one of God's loving, caring, comforting touches in the next few days. Pray for the First Baptist family as we minister and care for Rita and the children. Continue to pray for the Schmitts. Pray that their spirit remains expectant as they await each day's progress. Hug your children! Hug your parents! Hug each other like you have never hugged before. MEAN IT! | | |
