I've been reflecting a lot on how much my family and I have been blessed by the Lord this past year. We have found so much peace and contentment while living in Jerome. We have made wonderful friends and the kids are doing so well. Recently our ward boundaries were changed and we now find ourselves in the 6th ward, it will be a good opportunity for growth and we look forward to whats to come. We are so thrilled thinking about the weeks to come when we're able to bring home our new son. Most recently, I have felt the love of the Lord as I look back at the struggle my Father has had with his brain tumor. From the beginning of this fight with nature our family has felt the peace that comes with prayer and priesthood blessings. This particular tumor has been treated with medication for the last two years, with hopes it would shrink - surgery was not an option and it was believed by medical professionals that it would forever more be a part of Dad's existence. Surprisingly and most excitingly was the news that the tumor is now gone, a true miracle in all of our lives. My Father has always meant so much to me and I will forever be grateful for the time we've been given with him, especially for his grandchildren to have the opportunity to spend time with Grandpa. My faith has grown through this and my appreciation of the temple has increased. How grateful I am again to the Lord for the blessings he pours out on us. We love you Dad.

What wonderful news! I'm so glad your dad is doing so well!
Cute costumes. We had years where we literally carried Jacob's costumes around because he wouldn't put them on. He grew out of that soon enough.
Good luck with your baby. Keep us posted!
That is indeed, wonderful news! I am so happy for you and your family. The Lord still performs miracles today in our lives. What an amazing blessing! My dad is now cancer-free. It's amazing what we learn through trials and struggles. Best of luck to you with baby #3. I hope that all goes well for you. Love ya!
Miracles do happen, I am so happy to hear about your Dad!
