This might be what you have been waiting so long to hear from me . . . I now weigh 100 pounds, which is the weight I was when my digestive system was working properly. So that means you finally get to complete the project we started last year: coloring pages! A winner from each category will receive a small prize, but the main point of it all is to celebrate an accomplishment that is an answer to your prayers, and that we get to enjoy the coloring pages we receive from you. Thank you in advance for your pages and for your good sense of humor with this. :)
Other updates:
Please pray for a doctor's appointment I will have today, February 12. It is a regular checkup, but we will all need wisdom for decisions about medical and teaching plans for the near future. We were hoping that my stomach would begin to work more normally, and that I would be able to eat more regular food again, but my digestive system has not begun working correctly yet. I continue to shop the stores for Gerber baby food sales. :)
I will begin volunteering at a local Elementary school on Feb. 15, weather permitting. I am very thankful for this opportunity and am definitely looking forward to it.
In December I was in a wonderful wedding of my good friends with a bunch of other friends from college. Some of our friends from camp drove ALL the way from central Texas to Ohio (and back) over the weekend to be there. Great memories.
