Merry Christmas to All!

It looks like we've got our Christmas miracle! Samuel's cultures that were drawn on Monday have not yet grown anything!! That means he didn't have to have his catheter pulled today after dialysis. What a relief! Thank you, Lord!

This Christmas is even more special for us as we remember how difficult it was to have Samuel in the ICU at this time last year. We are grateful that we can all be together this year.

While we are thankful for so many blessings, our hearts are also heavy for my cousin's family. His wife, Hope, is in the hospital with cancer and is not expected to live much longer. They have three children ages 19, 11, and 9. Please pray for Eric, Justin, Emelie, and Nathan. It is a heartbreaking situation.

We would like to wish each of you a most blessed Christmas. May you be surrounded by those you love, may you remember the reason for the season, and may the joy of His coming touch your life and bring peace to your heart.

With love,
Tom, Nancy, Katie, Hannah, Grace, Samuel, Esther, and Lydia
