February 2010 Doings

Hello Everyone!  Our family has had a good yet tiring time this month of Feb. 2010.  My mom is still really sick. She was in ICU at Blount Memorial for one week right after Christmas.  Since then she has been at Blount Memorial’s Transitional Care Unit.  She goes in waves of doing better then going back downhill.  She has had a pretty good week this past week. Perhaps it was because her birthday was on Monday the 22nd. Please keep her in your prayers as well as my sister and me.  We are both very tired from spending sooooo much time at the TCC Unit. 

Emma was supposed to go to Jamaica this month on a mission trip with her school, Crossroads Christian Academy.  She had not been feeling well all week and even got on the bus headed to Atlanta’s Hartsfield Airport not feeling well.  On the trip, she kept feeling worse and we all decided that it was best that she not leave the country in her condition.  Tony and I drove all night to the outskirts of Atlanta to pick her up and bring her back home.  She was very disappointed yet feels that it was perhaps not God’s timing for her to go on the trip.  She is feeling better now.  Thank you for everyone’s support.

Oh, and I almost forgot!  Tony’s boss at John H. Daniels Co. invited us to go out with him to his shooting range.  We had a GREAT time.  We all got to shoot some awesome guns.  Well, actually Tony got to shoot alot of awesome guns.  Emma and I were a little more like scaredy-cats.  Although, Emma shot more different types than I did.  We took our .22 which Emma and I shoot quite a bit.  I always said that I wouldn’t have a gun in my house that I couldn’t shoot!  Anyway, I also shot a .38 caliber.  Emma shot the .38 and a .45 and maybe some others, I am not sure.  Tony shot those and others including a sniper rifle!  He was excited.  He LOVES guns.  I guess it is a guy thing. Anyway, I’ve got some pictures.  But I will have to upload them later.  We can’t do that from our house for some UNKNOWN reason!

Have a great day!
