I'm sooooo glad to hear from you guys!!! Seeing Emma on the swing made me cry. I miss you guys so much, especially with all you've been going through. You are in our prayers daily and in our hearts at every moment.

Love you!

We have been praying for all of you. God brings Emma to my mind many times every day . Lots of folks have been asking about and praying for her and all of you. It's good to see her picture.
Love and Prayers

The LORD (All sufficient, All powerful, Creator, Redeemer, Righteous and Just King...) is your Shepherd (Protector, Provider, Guide, Comfort...); (in Him) you have everything you need. You will be made to lie down in grrrreeeeen pastures by Him (Hide in His Shadow.) He leads you beside the still, quiet waters; He restores your soul (mind and will and emotions...) He leads you in the right paths because you represent Him on earth! Even though you walk through dark valleys, through the shadow of death, He is with you. His rod and staff comfort you. He prepares a feast for you even with your enemies near by and all around (how jealous they must be!!) He anoints your head with oil (healing and protecting oil) and your cup of blessings overflows (spilling over, uncontainable, blessings others too!!) His Loving kindness and mercy follow you all the time (you cannot get away from them!) and you will live in the Shepherd's House forever and ever, AMEN! (my own paraphrase...and prayer for you ;o)
