Saturday Morning

Justin, Jeremy and Laura arrived safely at 3:30 AM this morning. They drove in very heavy rain for about the first six hours, and got through the mountains before the predicted snow arrived. Early in the trip, their windshield wiper broke, but they were able to rig up a string arrangement that Laura operated as needed.

Carol had a fair night. The cough seems to be somewhat better, but she continues to run a temperature that we cannot get below 100.5 even with the help of Tylenol. Also, she continues to have nausea problems that are uncomfortable and prevent her from eating much. She has the sensation that food is just waiting in her esophagus to come up...I'm sure that you get the idea.

We continue to be so thankful to God for His peace and for being with us through this journey. Also, for you dear people that are praying and communicating your love to us in so many ways. We do read and reread your emails and cards, but feel a bit guilty that we have not had time to reply to each one. Hopefully life will become more normal one of these days so that we can be responsive.

Recently a dear friend wrote "I am convinced that each of us is an important project of God's and some day we'll see ourselves from his point of view and be amazed at all that was going on that we were unaware of while we were in the middle of it." Thank you Lord for trusting us on this journey. May our lives honor and glorify you as we travel this new road!

Our love to you all,

Chuck...and Carol too
