This weekend was beautiful. Saturday we ate lunch at the park and the girls went crazy on the play ground. I'm amazed how much Kimmi can do now; the things she can climb on now. And she is talking so well now. I can't believe the complete sentences she comes up with. It all seem like it's happened over night :( It's both exciting and sad to see them grow up. My babies are becoming little girls and I don't know if I like the prospect of that.

Isn't it weird that when our children are first born we can't wait for them to do stuff; first word, rolling over, walking, riding a bike, writing, reading etc. But then we find ourselves wishing they where still that little peanut curled up on your chest sleeping, and looking like a little angel, instead of acting like a little imp :) I guess we need to always remember what a treasure they are and enjoy the ride while it lasts. Never rushing it, but never looking back. If you do you lose the little moments that mean so much.

So, I guess the morale of the story is enjoy your children right where they're at, good and bad :)

I've added a few more pics to the Spring 2003 album. Click on the Pictures link on the right.

Hey everyone! I have good news about Nathan. The e-mail from my mom is below.


Just want to let you know how Nathan is doing. He's doing great! The doctors and nurses are amazed at how well he is feeling. His counts have hit bottom but he is still doing well. He has needed platelets but that is it so far. God has truly done a miracle. This is just so unusual. I don't know what might happen next but I know that God has spared him so far.

So thank everyone for their prayers and praise God for his goodness.


Thanks everyone :)


Just testing to see if this works.

We had a pretty good Easter. The girls were fun to watch, hunting eggs and going through their baskets. The Easter service at church was really good and we had a lot of visitors. But as we went home for a quiet afternoon and Easter dinner we found Malorie had nocked the crock pot lid off and dinner had dried up. So after banishing Malorie to her room we went to the store to stock up and start over. Needless to say, dinner was late, but Kari did a great job and it was good.

I just finished getting my computer working. My daughters thought it would be a good idea to stick a floppy in the CD- Rom and use the Floppy as a piggy bank. So I had to dig the change out of the floppy and I put in a new CD-ROM. I also put in a second hard drive.

Well, it's late.

Well I talked to my mom and Nathan is doing well. It will still be a while before we know if it worked. He'll be in the hospital for a few weeks. Pray for a swift and uneventful recovery.

The site is coming together nicely. I hope to get it finished and a domain by next week.

A quick update on Kari. She went to the doctor yesterday to get the results from the test she had last month. The doctor said that she has lost 84% of her right ear and that the other problems like falling down is because of the ear damage and not brain problems. That's good news, and they think they'll be able to fix it with just a couple trips to the rehab center. Unfortunitly, it will only fix the falling down and dizziness problem. They can't doing anything about the hearing. We're still praying that God will take care of that end.

Also, my brother had the bone marrow transplant yesterday. I've not heard yet how that turned out. I'll update you when I hear anything.

OK folks bear with me a bit longer the site is almost complete. It will be read to go shortly and I'll be regerstering my domain name soon. Sorry if some of the links aren't working yet. They'll be up soon.

Also you might want to check out our pictures. We are at the park the other day with the girls and got a lot of great shots. You'll find them in the Spring 2003 album.
