Josiah’s MRI went really well! We didn’t get results right away since the MRI was later in the afternoon. They called this morning and told us everything still looks great! He’ll see the neurosurgeon Monday afternoon for his follow-up appointment. No Sedation! This was Josiah’s FIRST time to do the MRI while AWAKE! He didn’t […]
Seeing the hand of God
I love that on different apps, we can see photos from “this day” in past years. I love getting to see my now 12, 10, 7, and 5 year old children as babies and toddlers and preschoolers. And this time of year, I see their back to school pictures, proof of how much they’ve grown […]
Coffee, Toothpaste, & Nerfing
I have time to blog today!!! Nathan and I are in Lexington, Kentucky this week at the International Conference on Missions (ICOM). We left early (3am) Wednesday morning to help set up Pioneer Bible Translators’ booth. They actually take up multiple booth spaces, but the display is pretty cool. Today, we don’t have anywhere to be […]

Christian Standard Article

On November 1st, we were honored to attend Jefferson City Cross-fit’s fundraiser they had put on for Josiah. It was called “Journey for Josiah” and they raised money for us to purchase gym mats for our basement play […]
Be Ready
Last Sunday, Nathan was given the opportunity to preach at our church. I always think he does a WONDERFUL job; but I may be a bit biased… He talked some about Josiah and our journey, revealing things we hadn’t shared with many. He also referenced a recent blog post of mine, asking the question “What […]
Baskets of Blessings
I came home this afternoon to a house-full of laundry. I decided I’d start with the two baskets that were OVERFLOWING with towels. As I loaded up the washing machine, only half emptying one basket before the machine was full, I couldn’t help but smile. All these towels meant that we had a full house […]
