 A few Extra Members that have been already so helpful in this journey with us.  Of course our animals Spartan, Rough Collie and our GIGANTIC cat Eddie, who's LOVE of food started when we moved a few times to many for him, I think he is thinking that every meal is his LAST.

Fred, is the girl's youth pastor, he is amazingly supportive to us in ways that only God working through him can I explain.  His love and generosity, selflessness to help in "anyway" possible to serve our family is mindblowing!  We LOVE you Fred and Celeste!  Our dear Kylinda,  She is Abbee's Youth Leader, My Friend, Encourager, Crazy Fun Gal, drop anything to help us out,  Amazing Sister in Christ.

In His Steps...

In His steps...
I find myself at the beginning of a journey of life's travels. For those of you who know me it is a "change of plans", if you don't "Welcome" to my thoughts, plans, praises, and questions of a diagnosis.  My Husband has been diagnosed with Lymphoma, and what a better way to update, keep in communication, and cleanse my thought process in one spot.  I will not be graphic or pithy, I would love your comments, encouragement, verses, and prayers.  The most important thing in my life is my personal relationship with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, He alone is my strength and Shield.  Come walk this journey with me...
