Happy Anniversary!!

Today is our 11th Wedding Anniversary...and Sandy is flat in bed as sick as she has ever been with a stomach virus of some sort. It was a long night for her and she doesn't seem out of the woods just yet. Please pray for her to get over this flu bug and to gain strength again. We have quite a lot on our plate for this weekend and not much of it will happen if she continues to be down and out.

Andrew showed his caring and responsible side last night...I was out at Prayer Meeting when Sandy took a turn for the worse. Andrew stepped in and was a big help and support to Sandy while I was gone and let me know, in very humble fashion, that he had done what he could while I was gone and now that I was home he was turning over the care-giving to me and going off to bed...it was very special to see him use these gifts that we have often seen in him.
I will try and tackle the teaching of our kids this morning and see how the rest of the day goes as I still have sermon prep to finish and a home to manage in my dear wife's absence!

I have so enjoyed being married to her these past 11 years and feel so blessed to be raising our family together and serving the Lord together. I couldn't ask for a better life partner then God has given me in Sandy. PTL!

Thanks for your prayers!

Gerald
