Happy Mother's Day

Mother’s Day was a nice day with Mom. Today we all went to Mom and Dad’s. We cooked pork roast and baked potatoes in roasting pans in the garage so that the smell wouldn’t make her sick. She kept down half a baked potato a bite of bread and some tea. We were thankful that she was able to eat a little and sit at the table for a few minutes.
We were missing Carmen’s three boys today and we missed their sweet faces. Carson woke up with a sore throat and did not want to expose Mom to it so he stayed home. Cameron and Kale had to work, so we missed them today as well.
We took a picture with Troy and Maria’s digital camera set on timer. Ok, we took about 10 pictures, but you try getting 9 people to quite acting up for a family photo at the same time. It’s not easy.
After we all left, Daddy took Mom for a drive over to the cemetery where she cleaned off her parents gravestones and put flowers on her Mom’s site for Mother’s Day. (They live about a mile away from the cemetery) Then she says Daddy took her for a short drive so they could see some of the flowers blooming in other yards. She said it was good to get out a bit.
We are headed back up to Seattle tomorrow to see the Orthopedic Dr. that did the biopsy. She is on oral antibiotics 4 times a day until next Saturday, so we are praying that he feels she is healing nicely.
We hope you all had a blessed Mother’s Day with your loved ones and thank you for your continued faithfulness in prayer for Mom and Dad.
I am hoping to get today’s picture posted as soon as I get a copy. Mom’s the pretty one in the chair!
We love and appreciate each and every one of you.

Kimberly and family
