September 2014:

Things are changing for us a little right now. Last week, I was in the PICU with my younger daughter, who was going through Diabetic Keto Acidosis. (DKA) It was an incredibly scary time. From that, we have now learned that she has Type 1 Diabetes. It has been such a shock to us all, that we have been able to focus on little else. So, during this time, I do ask your forgiveness, as I have not been posting on my blogs regularly.
Prayers for our family as we adjust are MORE than welcome! Thank you.
