Daniel's Surgery

 


Last week Daniel had surgery to remove a cyst from his right wrist. The doctor was very pleased how well the surgery went. He was expecting it to last about 2 hours, instead they were finished in just 29 minutes.

Daniel did an excellent job and was very brave throughout the whole ordeal. Next Wednesday he returns to the hospital to have his stitches removed - hopefully that will go as easily!!

We really appreciate all who prayed for him. Thank you.

Deanna's Birthday


I can hardly believe that our 'baby' is getting so big. We celebrated her 3rd birthday last week by spending the day together playing. We went to Jefferson Barracks Park and enjoyed a picnic followed by a 2.7 mile bike ride. I know that's not far, but for Jeremiah riding a 12" bike - it was a looooong way!

She has grown up so much this year. She has left behind the diapers and baby talk. She now communicates extremely well and can keep up with the big kids (most of the time). She has her own chores around the home and is getting quite proficient at clearing the table after meals. Although she does like to eat what is left on all the plates!!!

She has been an incredible blessing to us and we are grateful to God for placing her in our home.
