Is winter over yet?

Well I am so ready for springtime to begin and wellness to return to our family. Currently, Jacob is recovering from strep throat again (2nd time this season!) and Josiah ended up hospital last week due to his chronic bronchitis and swelling of his esophagus which made it difficult to breathe. He is currently on medication to recover from this as well.

On a fun note, Josiah had "Spirit Week" at school last week. One day was dress like a rockstar day, so we gave him a mo-hawk, he loved it! Then another day was "Dress up as an ancestor of yours" day. Kind of a strange spirit day, but Josiah knew exactly what he wanted to do as soon as I told him about the day. He said that he wanted to dress like his Great Grandpa Sam that he was named after. I'm not sure how he knew to call Grandpa "Sam" but he knew that is where his middle name came from and that his Papa had the same name too. So we explored how he could look like Grandpa Sam and decided he would dress like Grandpa did when he was deputy sheriff in Kansas. So we did the best we could on short notice, and I got him a Sheriff star to wear with his flannel shirt. I have a feeling Grandpa was smiling down on him that day. :-)


We are looking to brighter, warmer, and healthier days coming. Blessings to you all!
