The Day After Three Kings Day

Three Kings Day was quite a hit with our kids. They would like to celebrate it every year. Our daughter Lori received a stuffed bear that she named 'Bob', but his nickname is 'chubs', he likes tae kwondo, and is in the 2nd grade because he is so smart, even though he should be the first grade for his age. He is quite the bear! :-) A special thank you to everyone who participated in this. The kids were very blessed by it. Their parents also enjoyed the process as well. :-)

Christen had a nice day of rest. She still isn't eating very much, however. Please pray that her appetite will return soon so that she can go into the first round of chemo with more strength.

Also, please pray that Thursday's appointment with the oncologist in Charlottesville would go well, and that we would be able to get all the "baseline" testing done while we are there.

Thanks to everyone for the prayers, and support.

Steve & Debbie for the family

Dear Steve and Debbie,
Thank you for sharing the day's events with us! I have prayed for Christen's appetite.
Kurt and I wanted to share something with you, and he suggested that I post it.
Through this season that God has ordained for your family, your marriage will be strengthened in ways you never imagined. Your love and appreciation for one another will grow deeper through each step. Your dependence upon God as a married couple will swell up to the heavens. Your thankfulness for one another will not be able to be contained. You will be one another's strength when feeling weak. You will redirect one another to fall at the throne of God when weakness and fear and anger arise. You will comfort one another as you proceed in this journey, opening just one door at a time. You will rely on one another as never before. We love you all so much,
Kurt and Jennifer
