AGAIN

FIRST OF ALL LET ME ADD THIS BEFORE I BEGIN

Ecclesiastes 3.1

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.

We have been very busy the past two weeks going for scans, test and doctor appointments. The results show that Dale's cancer has returned, it is now in his spine (L1), so again he will be having radiation and chemotherapy. Dale and I are trying to be optimistic and leave this in God's hands. We definitely needs prayers from everyone. We need for God to touch this cancer and destroy it for good. I could go on and on about the doctor's prognosis, but that would only take away from the fact that I know GOD is in control.

Please Please Please keep us in the daily prayers.

WHAT CAN I SAY

I know, I know........I am getting less and less frequent with my blogs. But there just does not seem to be much to speak about, yeah I know I have a new beautiful grand daughter, but with all that has transpired the past 2 weeks I am just slightly overwhelmed. There have been some really high emotions floating around our households and to that I say Lord please help us cope with all our different personalities, calm our fears and bring comfort and peace to each of us.

My wish and prayer for 2008 is for HEALTH, we begin this New Year with a heavy heart, anticipating the outcome of Dale's biopsy he will have this next Tuesday.

Little Macie is scheduled for a EKG on Tuesday to determine if she has a murmur or not.

We do start of the New Year with the return of my sister Janet, she has been working very long weekend hours for the past 7 months or so; she will begin a new job in about two weeks that will bring her back to the family weekend gatherings. YIPPIE........I have surely missed her.

Hopefully before many more days all will have settled down and we can begin a somewhat "normal" life again.

Just for the fun of it I am adding a few of my recent photos............oh of course they are of Macie.

Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT A DAY

Words cannot describe the feelings of watching your first grandchild being born. I was not fortunate enough to have my daughters (both were planned c-sections). But God blessed me with the opportunity to be present during Macie's birth.

All I can say is wow how awesome...........I truly felt GOD during the entire process, and I especially thank God for the wonderful labor and delivery nurses that took care of Sarah. Karen the nurse that actually help deliver little Macie was exceptionally special. When it came time to push, she stopped and asked Sarah and Jeremy if she could pray, she prayed the sweetest prayer for mom, dad, baby and all those helping. WOW that was the most precious moment.

I am amazed at the entire process of child birth, not to mention the reminder of How awesome God's creation of life is.

I will treasure these memories for ever.

Now I pray that God will bless my wonderful Daughter Keeley with the

the chance to be come a mother.

WELCOME MACIE NOEL

MACIE NOEL WAS BORN ON DECEMBER 24TH 2007 @ 4:02 PM

SHE WEIGHS 5 LB 7.5 OZ AND IS 18.5 INCHES LONG.

MOMMY, BABY AND DADDY ARE DOING VERY WELL.

WE WAIT

Well within the next 24 hours or so I will be a Nana, Little Macie is on her way into the world. Sarah has been in the hospital since Thursday due to pre-eclampsia. Her labor will be induced this morning, and hopefully Macie will decide to appear today, but if not the doctor plans on taking her if labor has not progressed significantly tomorrow morning.

So we will definitely have a Baby by Christmas eve.

The delivery (by the doctor's calculations) will be 5 weeks early, but they are confident that Macie is ready for the world and they do not foresee any complications.

I will definitely have some pictures to post within the next few days.

so stay tuned.

love to all

Please remember our family in your prayers.
