Family

Three weeks ago we visited Mark's family in MD. We had a lovely time - all together, much love and joy.

Tobias & Ally meet for the first time (Toby is 3 weeks older than his cousin)



To update many, my beautiful niece was born with a heart defect. After receiving care at Hopkins for 6 weeks she came home with a nasogastric tube to ensure weight-gain and home health services. After three weeks at home where she smiled, cooed, put on pounds, interacted with her 2 year old sister, a week ago she was readmitted with heart failure. She has just been weaned off the heart-lung bypass machine however, the left portion of her heart is not functioning properly. The doctors are baffled as they can find no concrete reason for her crash over the weekend. She is now on the heart transplant list as a fall-back plan. If this story moves you, please pray for her - for miracles of healing, wholeness, for God to preserve her precious life. Our hope rests in Him, the Lord of all creation who holds her in His powerful, loving hands.

Beautiful Ally


We took the girls to a local park on this perfect autumn day

SWINGING!


These cousins were a riot! We asked them to "hug" goodbye and once they got ahold of each other, they wouldn't let go! Simply precious moments...
