ps

well - that prayer was nice. but the peace it gave didn't last long.

joshua woke up throwing up. bailey woke up burning up (the FLU). rebekah is home again complaining of a stomach ache. not sure if it's "real" - but i'm not taking a chance.

pat and i got in your classic "we're both stressed to the max in our roles (him at work, me at home)" argument this morning over nothing.

it's going to be a long day.

i just really want to go away together as a family. we all need it badly. but there's so much to be done for that to happen. not the least of which is everyone needs to be healthy.

It seems to happen like that. When it rains it pours with the health stuff and the stressed out parents. Even more so with a pregnant mommy! You will continue to be in our prayers. Sorry you are going through such tough days (and nights!)

Oh No! I don't even know what to tell you other than to hang in there. I am running to Target this afternoon. If you need something let me know. I'll call before I leave.

Dear Lord Jesus, I pray that you hold Courtney and Pat dear to you today. Please shower them with your love and your presence and allow them to see your grace in the midst of their circumstances. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us and nothing is impossible with you Lord. We lean not on our own understanding but ask Lord that we will not fear for you have redeemed us and the waves will not crash over us. Please give this family the strength that surpasses all understanding and allow them to rest in your love. Thank for them and heal them Lord. Amen

I feel like I have to check in on you hourly these days - life keeps slamming you guys!!! Assuming that you've already gotten Joshua & Bailey's prescriptions filled...still praying health over you and Pat (emotional health too!) What is your limit as far as to go or not to go on your trip? It's only Thursday - alot can happen between now and Saturday...especially if you can start the meds today...

Oh shoot! I thought you were out of the woods. I am so sorry. I hope you can still go on your trip. You definitely need it. I'll say a little prayer for you guys.
