snow snow snow


Hi everyone, well, here I am again writing from cold and snowy Michigan. Last week the temperature drooped to 20 below F for those of you in Mad that is -29C. It warmed up a little over the weekend because we got 8 more inches of snow. They say this is the worst winter they have had in many many years. If God is trying to show me this will never be my home again, it worked.

Well, now about my Mom. Some days are better than others. Yesterday was one of the better days. When I came in the door she was in the dinning room and yelled to me by name and said come here. It was good to have her know me. The night before she told my Dad she was going to die that night. She is talking a little now where we can understand her. She still can not walk, but can scoot around in the wheel chair using her feet. She is not eating regular food because she forgot how to swallow. The food is all mushed like baby food. We have been giving her some protein shakes which she really likes.

As for me, I am at peace with everything that is going on. I have been listening to God when he speaks to me and reading and studying His word daily. I thank you all for all your prayers. Please continue to pray for my parents and that God continues to use me as his servant.

Yes, I will be in prayer for you and your family! Good to hear that you are reading daily... I just had a thought and wanted to get a book for you but don't know that you would finish it before you left back to madagascar and if you wanted to have one more thing to deal with? It is a great book though! Called One month to live. We are going through it as a church and it is amazing! Really puts things in the right perspective...
Love you Sandi, Nicole
