I am so excited as I write this post. So much has been going on in the life of my little family! It is encouraging to see what God is up too.
First, a health update. For those of you that have been keeping up, you know that we had tried to have some ozone treatments that did not work out. Well, we found out that they are being administered by a new nurse, which opens the door to this treatment again. However, the timing and financial commitment has not worked out for us at this time. The main reason for continuing to pursue this treatment is that it would give a great boost to my immune system. A boost that my immune system really needs. I continue to catch anything that makes its way into our home. The good news is that my doctor is seeing great improvements. She even told me that most people do not have as great and quick results as I. Isn't God good? He is the healer! My doctor is watching a certain blood count. It needs to be at or above 150 before I can be antibiotic free. It is currently at 57, which is a great improvement on the 7 that it was when I started. Please continue to pray with us that healing continues and my immunity improves.
Now for the wedding news. My brother just got married and is starting a new life out with the gal that he loves. We are so excited that they finally got married. It was a joy and honor to enjoy all the wedding festivities with both of them. I was a bridesmaid and baby girl was one of the flower girls. I am so blessed to love my brothers bride as a sister and it was a joy to share the "getting ready" part of the day with her. Praying with them both as they step into this new adventure was such a special thing for me personally. I must say that I am so grateful for folks who were and are praying for my health, because on this special day for my family, I only had to slow down once. I enjoyed the whole day, from beginning to end without pain, headaches and only once needed to sit down from dizziness. I watched as my brother's bride got her hair and makeup done. I stood next to my brother and his bride in the 90 degree sun as they said I do. I danced with my baby girl and husband until the very last song. I enjoyed seeing and visiting with folks that I haven't gotten to connect with in years. It was such a blessing to not just share in this time, but truly enjoy it without health problems. Thanks for praying me through this special day!
I have started a business! I feel a bit like that cartoon whose head spins round and round and round. I am learning so much and finally getting to apply some of that college learning. I am an independent consultant for Lilla Rose. I sell fine hair jewelry that is both beautiful and affordable! What makes this venture so fun is that I really love what I sell.

I will be having my Grand Opening at the end of this month in Athens. Please pray with me that I follow God's leading in this business venture and that if/when I am successful at it that He gets the glory. I am so excited to see what He does in and through me with this great little business. My husband will tell you that it is wonderful to see me excited about this business. And he is right, I am just excited to sell something that I truly enjoy myself.
We have finally started that long "to-do" list that we had to put off while I was so very sick. First, stop...a crafting/gift wrapping/letter writing closet. That's right, we are multipurpose fans! We have taken over the guest bedroom closet (sorry, Mom) and turned it into a craft storage and desk space. A picture preview is coming soon in a post.
We are also starting to feel like we can start visiting extended family. It has been far to long since we have truly gotten to visit with much of our family and we look forward to hearing what God is doing in the lives of our extended family again.
Thank you for praying and being part of our story. We look forward to more wonderful updates in the future. Until next time...
