Wed 8/13

Hello family and friends,
Good news here!! Erin's bone marrow biopsy and echocardiogram were both clear!! Praise God!! We are so excited. Grandmommy also had good news. She had an angiogram that came back clear as well. So we are very blessed today!! We are kicking up our heals at God's Grace in our lives! And of course we want to share our good news with you. Thank you all for your faithfulness in prayer for Erin. I know I have said this many times, but we honestly couldn't have done this without you and your encouragement. We have been surrounded by angels with faces we know and love!! Thank you very much.
Erin's first week with kids is going well. She is tired but aren't all teachers on the first week of school? Her friends at school check on her frequently and send her home promptly at the end of the day! Gotta love those ladies!! Erin is doing well. She still gets shooting bone pain now and then, but not frequently. God is SO GOOD!! We just take it one day at a time and lean on the arms of our Savior! What a blessing to have such a tender and loving God to carry us through life!!

"See I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared....Worship the Lord your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you, and ...I will give you a full life span."
Exodus 23: 20,25-26

I get so excited when the Lord leads me to the Old Testament to find the verse He intends for me to see. There is some really cool stuff in the Old Testament. Don't ya love it? Thanks for rejoicing with us in the Lord's Victory over Cancer!!

From Kyle's family: We never stopped praying and we give God the praise and glory.

So happy Erin is able to pick up where she left off.

We will continue to keep her in our prayers.
