Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

It's been a busy few days.

Erik was involved in an accident at work last week. Luckily no one was hurt; now we're waiting to find out if it will affect his job.

Mom had her hip replacement surgery today! April & her husband Ben took her to the hospital; they're the first shift of the kids to be there. Kirsten and Paul were also at the hospital with them today. The report is that the doctors were pleased with how everything went (YAY!), but that the anesthesia did not agree with Mom's constitution (she's been nauseated and uncomfortable). Hopefully that will pass and a quick recovery will begin.

Any and all prayers appreciated!

Since I do not have approval to post the cute picture April sent of prepped Mom in her surgical bonnet, you'll have to be satisfied with our version of a Winter Wonderland. Hey, it's the closest we can get to snow right now! May your week be filled with the joy and hope and love of that first Christmas!

You have big flakes, we have tiny ones, but they keep falling. When Christmas is over, I will prefer yours! I'm anxious to know how your mom is today - she was feeling lousy last night, so I left. No sense being sick with an audience. Our Christmas is tonight as P & J and J & J & L will be out of town on "the day." We hope to do something with B & A & I on Christmas. I'm glad they are here. Still praying! Love you! k
