Winter Wonderland

Splish Splash beyond toddler size.

This is how kids entertain after they pass the splashing of the water stage.

Prayer Request

The joy of Sesame Street.

This is my wonderful long time friend, Melissa (in the background). This is her 5 year old daughter, Reese. She just found out last Friday that she has epyndemoma. A type of cancer that attacks the central nervous system. The cancer is not rare but Reese' presentation of it is extremely rare. The doctors are completely shocked that she is even walking because they've never seen a case where the child seems unaffected by it (other than the headaches and backaches she was having). She shouldn't be walking or talking like she does. They are in the middle of making a treatment plan (chemo v radiation) and deciding where she'll have treatment (CHKD v St Jude v Harvard). It all depends on what the doctors decide. Her pathology reports have been sent all over to world renowned doctors to make these decisions. Please pray for healing, peace and patience for all of them. They are all determined to fight this and see the good come out of it. She has her shunt put in tomorrow and then travels to DC to meet with a doctor on Tuesday. It's hard to imagine but I already see great things God has planned for these people.

We be walkin...

These are my SIC's (Sisters in Christ!). We meet on Monday nights and have so much fun. This is our team for the Great Strides Walk for Cystic Fibrosis. We walk for our sister, Tricia. See the post below to donate toward a cure!

Surfing for Autism

Here is a video of the Surfing for Autism event here on the OBX. Brad was involved. You'll notice him riding a wave with a little boy. He had 3 children that day that he taught. It was neat to watch. Ellie was able to get involved too by getting on the board with a little boy and showing him it was ok to surf. Enjoy. Just click on the video after you open the link.
