Today is Mom's birthday. She is the most amazing Mom...how do we say 'thanks'? We are thankful for her display of Christ most clearly in the last 18 months. She has served so sacrificially and loved us kids through everything. God has gifted her in so many unique ways...especially giving of herself and loving on Dad.
Mom makes us laugh, holds us tight, encourages us, prays for us, loves Jesus, loves her family and friends, and brings so much joy to so many people. She is strong and rooted in her faith...clings to Jesus through these hard times and has been an outstanding example to so many.
We know today isn't the way any of us would want Mom to spend her birthday, but we know given the circumstances she wouldn't be anywhere else....that is true love.
We love you Mom and pray you know how special you are and how much you mean to us!
We are truly grateful for you!
All our love,
Sarah, Zac, & Matt
Birthday Flowers! Thank you!!
Update on Dad:
We have been here at the Kobacker House since Wednesday....this place is incredible. The facility is top of the line and the care is exceptional. We have grown to love the nurses and staff here. Dad is very comfortable, pain-free, and peaceful. Most of the time he is sleeping and then he will wake up to see who is in the room. Our large family is taking turns spending time with Dad. Please understand that visits with Dad are limited to family.
Thank you again for your prayers, we can feel the support. God is giving us strength each and every day. We know that Jesus is working even here at the Kobacker. Dad has blessed so many nurses and we continue to see God working.
Once again, thanks for your prayers. Pray that Mom would feel special today on her birthday!
