Hey Everybody!!

Wow....I didn't realize it had been as long as it's been since I blogged! So much has consumed my life since the last blog. On a sad note.....my sister's 8 month old grandson passed away last week and needless to say, we have all been a wreck! He was a precious little one in every way. He always had a smile on his face. Our consolation is that we know that he is in the arms of Jesus! My daughter is well into her 5th month of pregnancy and we have bad news concerning her baby. He has Type II Thanatophoric Dwarfism. This means that he will not survive after he is born. She and her husband have accepted it, but it is oh so sad anyway you look at it. They both have tremendous faith and know that God has a purpose for this. I covet your prayers for all of us as we try to prepare for his birth and death. The positive thing in this situation is that all the test have shown that this was a random thing and that she will be able to have a normal healthy baby in the future! Praise God! My son and his wife are also expecting a little one, she is 3 months, and so far, everything seems to be great! My other son, his wife and 3 girls are wonderful! Life is so hard to figure out sometimes, but I'm so glad I know who holds the future! Maybe I'll have some goodies to show soon! Love to all of you and thank you for being my blogging friends!
