More Good News...

Mom continues to do well. She went to the opthamalogist (sp?) yesterday. As most of you know, she has macular degeneration. She has been getting shots in her eyes. In some folks, the results are remarkable, practically making the MD go away. Others are not quite so fortunate.

PTL, Mom is one of the fortunate. Her doctor yesterday decided not to give her another injection because the MD is practically gone! Only one little spot.

Now, isn't God good? I remember when Mom was diagnosed with MD. It was scary. But, she was determined to take it one day at a time and give it to God. Who better could handle it? I would say He has handled it quite well!

It's hard to know why God heals some and not others. I'd say it's all in his plan of perfecting us. He knows what is best and what roads we need to take in order to be ready to go on to our heavenly home.

Dad's80th Birthday

Well, Dad finally caught up with Mom! We celebrated his birthday last weekend at one of his favorite restaurant's. I think we had 15 of our family there. We were missing Dustin/Garrett/Duane & family.

We did our traditional Chamberlin rendition of Happy Birthday (much to Dad's horror - see video).

We are soooo thankful for our mom/dad. It was a great celebration. What a wonderful man my dad is -- an example for our kids/families. We love you, Dad!
