Good Evening, I hope and trust that God is blessing you and keeping you close and healthy. I can't even begin to say how these past 6 days have been. Mostly bad emotionally but also good. The good things are God is still here with us and showing His faithfulness, Jennifer and Alex surprised me with pictures for mothers day which this weekend I hope to post (they are awesome), Dad and Bart got my wall in bedroom done and the window casing done and even insulated around them, family came over on mothers day and God had strangers provide a free meal coupon for me for dinner, God gave me the ability to grill for lunch. Mom helped make the meal. Each day is different, some seem like it's been years since Chris, then others seem like it was yesterday. My counselor says she is proud of me and thinks I am doing well. She said 3 weeks instead of 2 weeks to go see her. Last night basically Jennifer and mom did the bible study, because I slept due to a headache/migraine I had all day.

We had Erin's House tonight (grieving support) and I don't feel so bad about myself. There is a man there tonight and he lost his uncle 5 weeks ago, had a baby girl 4 weeks ago and lost his wife of 10 years 3 weeks ago. He has 3 other children as well and they are acting out due to their mom's death. (complications of birth) so please keep them in your prayers.

My prayer tonight is that God will continue to do His will for us and keep showing His presence to us. I pray His healing touch to those who need healing. I praise God for ALL He has done for us and is going to do. I thank Him for the best times and the trying times. For if it wasn't for those times I wouldn't be as strong and secure as I am in Him as I am now. He is my Rock and Foundation. I give Him all my love. I pray that you will lead my parents in their hard decision to adopt Anthony. We have prayed that he would be in a safe encouraging home and grow to know you. If it is Your will for this please let them know. Look at Jennifer and I how strong we are in You because of their example through rough and good times as well that they leaned and trusted you. As for me and my house we will serve the Lord.
