The past week has been a little crazy to say the least. Maddie returned to the doctor on Thursday (for the 3rd time in 10 days). She had a rash that scared me. Ron has never had chicken pox and so I was scared that perhaps we were going to be dealing with that. As it turns out she had a very non-typical (don't you love that word - sarcasm intended) strep rash.
When she is older, she will not be happy about this picture, but I documented it on Friday afternoon, as it was so bad. Honestly the picture doesn't even come close to how bad it was. The good news - she is much improved now. We got some meds in her and by Saturday she had improved tremendously!
Then Saturday we got another 6+ inches of snow! The boys all shoveled for an hour or so (it wasn't as heavy of snow as last week, thankfully). Then they decided to play a little! This pile comes to Ron's chest at least - it's a big one.
By the end of their play there were steps on the back of this pile and a sled path down the front. I didn't get a picture yet as it was pretty dark that night when they finally all came in! FUN times in the snow around here!
We continue to appreciate your prayers for Ron's brother, Ryan. He had his second treatment this past week and returned home Sunday morning. He is in tremendous pain and the next week will be more of that. We are praying for a good PET scan on the 23rd of this month. He will receive the results on the 24th. If the results are good and the chemo that he has had has been doing a good job then they will begin scheduling for the bone marrow transplant. If they decide more chemo is needed first, they will admit him on the 24th for yet another round.
Please continue to pray for Healing and please Pray for the Lord to be honored throughout all of this! We serve a mighty God who knows each one of us and holds us in His Hands! Praise the Lord, we wouldn't want to be any other place than right in the middle of His Hands and His Will!
