December 24, 2009 Merry Christmas!
Hello.
Well . . . our home is filled with excited children today anticipating Santa's visit tonight. This year has been filled with challenges, progress, and blessings for our family. We are thankful that God has seen us through it all!
The next exciting event we have ahead of us is that we have all been able to get time off work to allow is to travel to PA to visit family. Erik made this trip once when he was 6 months old. After this, he was diagnosed and it has been too risky to travel that far. The trip would have been difficult for him.
This year, we are thankful that God has given Erik good health and us the peace to think that we can take this journey as a family. We will load up the car and head up North the afternoon of the 26th and return late evening on the 30th. Please keep us in your prayers during this time and we will look forward to sharing how it goes with you when we return.
MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all and thanks for your prayers and support this year!
Erik's Family
