Kelly's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Sister!



Birthday Blessings



Instead of counting candles,
Or tallying the years,
Think about your blessings now,
As your birthday is here.


 
Consider special people
Who love you, and who care,
And others who’ve enriched your life
Just by being there.
 

Think about the memories
Passing years can never mar,
Experiences great and small
That have made you who you are.
 

Another year is a happy gift,
So cut your cake, and say,
"Instead of counting birthdays,
Count God's blessings every day!"
 
 
Kelly:  Thank you for modeling Jesus before me.  I'm so glad that God knew to have you be born first because our lives would have been a train wreck had He allowed me to "lead"!  You've taught me the importance of being a godly wife, mother and friend.  Through tough times and fun times you've been there for me, leading, guiding, cheering, comforting, laughing and documenting it all!  I am so thankful God blessed me with YOU!  I love you...I trust your birthday is as special as you are.
Tom completes his 20th treatment today!  Two-thirds of the way done with radiation.  Yesterday Tom had his EEG to see if there has been any seizure activity in his brain.  We will get the results at the end of the week.  We are praying that the test is clear and then Tom could possibly be weaned off of the anti-seizure medication...one step closer to possibly driving again.  Thanks again for praying for God's will to be done.
We so enjoyed our busy weekend with Tom's parents who flew back to Orlando on Monday.  Before they left Tom really wanted to buzz his remaining hair.  The radiation/chemo was taking its effects on his hairline!  Not all of his hair is coming out but mainly where the radiation beams are focused.  So now he his a tall, handsome almost bald guy!  He continues to look more and more like his dad.  Thanks Pops and Granny for a great weekend...we trust we didn't exhaust you too badly.
