Update

I cannot begin to express all of the thoughts and emotions that have flown through me over the past few weeks. All I can say is that we serve an amazing God, who loves us so very much. This morning I saw my mom pick up her new iPad and pull up my blog. She was overwhelmed with the outpouring of love by your comments alone, and was deeply touched by people she doesn't even know who have been praying for her during this difficult time.

My sister was able to fly in the day we found out about the tumor, and my dad was able to fly home the following Saturday. The surgery, last Tuesday, went extremely well.  By Thursday she was allowed to leave the hospital. Not only has she not suffered any side effects, but her memory has been restored to {even better than} normal! Bryan jokingly said to my dad that he has been given a "new" wife. My mom has been going 90-to-nothing ever since her arrival home. She does crash a couple of times a day, but it is extraordinary how quickly she has bounced back. Thank you, thank you for all of your prayers, sweet comments, messages, emails, texts and phone calls.

With all of that being said, there is still a lot going on around here. Please bear with me as I get though this phase. I will not be blogging every day, but will pop in and out for the next few weeks. Your love and support mean more than you will ever know.
