My family

One thing I've been wanting for a while is a picture of the four of us - I realized it has been a while since that happened and I wanted to make sure I had a good picture of us before tomorrow. My sweet friend, Jessica H, said she would take our picture - so we went to her house plopped down in her living room and here are the shots I liked the best (I tried to do some editing on some of them so they are the same but different lighting). Thanks so much Jessica! My family is a constant joy in my life and makes the "putting one foot in front of the other" each day worth it no matter what the challenge. I pray the Lord would give them strength and would comfort them in the coming weeks!

My surgery is tomorrow - late morning/early afternoon. I'll be in surgery for about 2 1/2 hours and be in recovery for a while. I'll get Jeremy to post progress tomorrow evening - and then I should be home Tuesday. Not sure how my voice will be for phone calls but I will post when I get a chance this week. Thanks so much for all of your prayers and help - I am grateful for your love and care.
