Support My Troops! (Prayer Request)

[weekycat]

Betty- yes Christian was the little guy we were waiting for. He was born the day after our reunion in Golden last year. He'll celebrate his 1st birthday on Oct 18th and we plan to have a big party for him at his great-grandma's house.

Karlynn- yes we do have a wonderful church family, and I've been thinking about something like that. Ray does remodeling, and I can surely paint, in fact I've been helping him paint some townhomes that he's been working on.

I am planning on talking to someone at church, but the pastor that I should talk to just left on vacation this morning...wouldn't ya know.... oh well, I know we'll get through this somehow. In fact I just read the verse you have under your signature Karlynn...it happens to be the very same verse I read to the congregation last Sunday, while Ray and I were leading the worship. Do you suppose He's trying to tell me something???

God Bless You And Your Family!

God Bless You And Your Family!

First time user, a little hesitant not knowing what I'm doing, however, I will keep your family in my prayers.America's kids (ours) are a wonderful group of people.I wish you and your family the very best. I feel a deep love for all that are in the military. I am a former soldier and have a young son in the Air Force.

I never would have thought I'd have to worry about my girls going off to war!

Actually, my niece, Shanna, (age 19) has already been in Iraq for about 8 months and has been home on leave for the last couple of weeks...She heads back there tomorrow and will (hopefully) be home by Christmas.

And Now...My daughter, Jessica, (age 23) called me today to say she's off to Iraq this Friday! I knew it was going to be soon, but last we heard it was going to be next Mon or Tues. Sooo....we're off to Rapid City on Wed Morning to go pick up Christian, (age 10 mos.) who will be spending the next few months with us. Jess should also be home by Christmas, God willing.
The good thing is, they will actually be at the same base over there! I'm not sure they'll get to see each other, but it's a possibility.

Please help me pray for my girls while they are gone, and also for Ray and I as we adjust to having a little guy in the house again. In my daughter's words, "He's a handful".

Thanks!! Catch ya when we return!
