    The rocks all came, guys, within a few days of each other. Jackie, Jeanne liked the fossil. She was awestruck at first. You have to understand I told her you sent a fossil, and she thought it was a dinosaur! Deena, we broke open the geode and were able to see the crystals. That was cool.

    It was nice of you all to help with this. Thanks.

    My dd picked out that rock for Jeannie. She was sure that one would have crystals in it. I'm glad it did!

    How are you guys doing? We're still praying for you here!

    It's getting better, Deena. Kevin is doing great, Mom is fine, Jeanne still has a sniffle, but hopefully the Zithromax will stay in her system a few weeks yet. Me, so far so good with the new antibiotic. I'm getting jiggy with the yogurt and c-berry juice. Your prayers are really helping, everybody. God is our Great Healer and my comfort has come from Him.

    Jeanne took Omnicef, not Zithromax this time. The Zithromax didn't help her.

    I'm telling you, Deena, if not for knowing He was right beside me during this one after another medical stuff, I would have been a basket case. I don't see how people go through things who don't know Him. Where does their hope come from? Where does their sense of comfort come from?
    I went through things before I knew God, and I always felt a sense of hopelessness, like I was all alone. At least during the turmoil now I have Someone to hold onto when it gets challenging.

    And sister.... February was challenging!

    Becky, I've often wondered that! How can you look at a newborn baby and think there is no God? How can you watch petals unfold and flowers bloom in spring and think there is no God? How can you live and breath and have a beating heart without GOD? And how can you get through the things life throws at you if you don't KNOW you can rely on God to sustain you?! (Hey that was almost poetical, eh?! :) ) But I do wonder those things. I am SOOOOOO very glad to have God as a part of my life each day, and know that even when times are bad, He's there to give support and help me through! We wouldn't grow if we didn't have some trials, so we can trust God to lead and guide us through it all!
