It's Been a very long and tough couple weeks...

Since my last blog entry we have spent almost every single night at the hospital. Titus' mother (my mother-in-law) has been very ill for many years but much worse in recent weeks. Week before last we dropped Thomas off at Bible School each night then stayed at the hospital till time to pick him up. Then as things made a turn for the worse she was moved to ParkWest where we also were most every night...she passed away on Thursday evening after a very long struggle. It was extremely hard to watch her suffer but even harder to let her go.

We have been very blessed to be surrounded with such supportive and kind friends and family, and are very thankful for all the calls, visits, cards, flowers, food, love, and generosity.

I will be sharing in the next few days some of the kind words people wrote about Peggy and gave to us as we were putting together a memorial service in her honor. The response was overwhelming, so many people had so many memories and stories to share. It is so obvious that she was truly loved by all who knew her.

Thank you all so much and check back in a few days for photos and stories shared in Peggy's honor.
