Wow. A baby really does grow and live in a mother’s womb! Yesterday, Sara-Beth had a successful version. Praise God! Thank you to all the people that prayed for her and our child. The doctor pressed on the baby and I could see our child’s impression in Sara-Beth’s belly as the baby was forced turned clockwise. The baby head is now down and ready to go where it should be.

my wife (in the middle) and her two sisters. i am realizing there is a special bond between sisters. a girl thing. sisters are cool. i have two (actually i have four including these two), and love them dearly. they have something special too.

nothing like hanging out on a Sunday. church today was about 1 john 3 and God as our Father. sweet concept, God as all believers’ Father. if we are all brothers and sisters, then there is the freedom to be both authentic and vulnerable. its great having family, and knowing you are loved despite failure. same with God’s family. enjoy the Sabbath.

Please pray that God would have mercy on her and that the cancer would be defeated. Cancer seems like just another disease until it attacks someone you love. I confess I didn’t realize how scary cancer can be, until someone I loved was diagnosed. I believe in a sovereign God, a God that works all things for the good of those who love Him. I confess that I still sometimes ask why her and why this?

What a great sport! I had a blast going down a fast and bumpy mountain. Forearms hurt, seat hurt, but the adrenaline made it all go away! (until the day after). How did I fair against all my in-laws going down the mountain? I finished last.
