Ladies, I've been gone a long time as life has been a constant roller-coaster the past two months. The latest upheaval has been the hardest...my father passed away suddenly of a heart attack April 8 while on a little vacation with my mother. He died in the mountains, which he loved, with my mother there, but they had no idea he wouldn't be coming home and the shock has been enormous for my family. Please pray for us all as we continue on with life. It does go on, but it will never be the same. Our youngest turned 1 this past weekend, and it was bittersweet as it was the first birthday of all our children without my father there to celebrate in body.
We move into our new home May 15 and will have internet consistently at that point. I hope to be able to return here more often then.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers, even when I cannot be at the boards.
Blessings to you all.

I am so, so sorry to hear of your father's passing. I will pray for all of you. Moving is hard at any time, but doing so much work after saying farewell to your father will be very difficult. Please know I'm praying for your family.

Oh, I'm so very sorry. How devastating and sad!
I'll pray for the repose of your father's soul, and for God's tender comfort to be felt by you and your sweet family. May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, rest in peace.
I'll offer prayers as well for your upcoming move.
