Answers!

God is so, so good! He flooded our household with answered prayers. In fact Heaven shook when the numerous prayers from you "hit" there...thank you beyond words. First, my left lung has 2 nodules....both of which, thanks be to God, (we found out today at 5) are calcifications! No matter how hard you try, when you receive news of such you go "there." What if it's cancer (in the St. Elmo's Fire voice......do you remember???) ? Well, because of the power of prayer, it's not so I'm not going back there! Second, Tod spoke with the coach today. He apologized for not calling and explained that he had been out of town and would be out of town over the next couple of weeks with recruiting stuff. When he returns he said he would get Tod's paper work set up, and get him out to kick and then get him working out with the off season! Thank you God! Thank you Scott! Third, Cole is SEVEN today! He wore his "Happy Birthday" tag from Mrs. Wunderlick all day! He also got the best hair cut ever from Ms. Kelly! He is looking so good...and I will update with pictures when Mike gets home on Sunday. Fourth, Craig's Confirmation Retreat has begun, and I pray that he remains open to the Spirit this weekend.

I am so humbled. I feel so unworthy. The countless displays of support and love truly leave me touched beyond words. I am surrounded by Him through you...His Beloved people. Thank you for making His Word come alive in us today.

Children, let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth.
1 John 3:18

so if i would just keep up-to-date on your blog you wouldn't have to repeat yourself to me and answer such old news when i see and talk to you. lol. ridiculous, yes, i am. story of my life right now... i'm just gonna have to roll with it until i can get out of this post-partum funk. at least that's what i'm calling it. it may have started before the baby but hey, who's admitting that.
again, so glad everything is ok with your lung. i was worried when you mentioned it...
congrats, tod!!! is he stoked or what????
you - a mother of 4, a wife and working full-time and much much more... super-woman, you are. i've got two and that's nothing compared to 4 growing boys. i need not feel full with my cup. if and when i do though i will think of you and your 4... :o) thanks for all your posts. they are always so moving, reflective - thought provoking...
