Prayers needed

This is from my friend Amy. If you could please pray for this little boy that would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Friends and Family:
I do believe in the power of prayer. I am personally asking you to pray for a family in desperate need of as much prayer as possible. Bryce Norwood is the little cousin of very close friend of mine. Bryce is a 6 year old boy from Shreveport who has been battling cancer. He and his family have been at St .Jude’s for his treatments. At this point in time, Bryce is loosing his battle with cancer. His little body just can not fight anymore. He is now in very intense pain, and his parents are helpless. All they can do is try their best to comfort him. Bryce at age 6 is a Christian and understands that God is calling him home. With that being said he is only six and has fears (about death) that I am sure you would agree a child should never have to face.

With that being said, I feel that I must do SOMETHING to help. The only answer I get when I ask what I can do is this: PRAY!!! So I am in listing you to help me do just that. Please pray for this boy and his family… for comfort and peace for Bryce and comfort for his parents and siblings. Please take time to do this now, and as many times as you can during the days to come.

Thank You,
Amy

Happy New Year!








Dang where does the time go?

We had a great christmas holiday. While most people dread having their children home for 2 weeks I loved it! No having to go somewhere everyday. We could have jammie days if we wanted and Drew even slept in most days, well till 9 am. Drew loved having her "sissy" home all day everyday. They actually played quite nicely most of the time. Does she really have to go back to school on tuesday??? Rylie is counting down the days till she is able to go back and see her friends and her teacher. Only 2 more sleeps till school day as she refers to it. LOL

Drew is now talking up a storm and everytime she repeats something Steve and I just bust out laughing b/c we are not used to hearing her talk and it just sounds so cute! Her new favorite word (b/c R says it all the time) is AWESOME!! but it sounds more like AWE-TUM!!

Enjoy a few pictures and hopefully I will post more soon.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
