Another Update

I'm still undecided about continuing this blog. We may start a Caringbridge account, where I could post updates, and it would send everyone an email letting you know whenever there is a new post. In the meantime, I will send out emails or do a post here.

Here's the latest: We are supposed to temporarily move into our friends' house in a few weeks, after they move into their new house. On Friday they just learned that their daughter has a brain tumor similar to Nathan's, and she is scheduled for surgery with Nathan's surgeon next week. We don't try to understand God's providences, but trust in the wisdom and goodness of the One who gave Himself for us.

Our plan for now is to make an offer on some land just 10 minutes into the foothills, which has a "rustic" cabin on it. We are hoping to make it livable, and stay in it for a year or so while building a log home, then demolish the cabin when we're done building the new home. We're walking into the unknown, especially considering Nathan's health, but this is the direction we feel led to go. I can just picture Nathan and Dania running through the meadow and pine trees with their cowboy boots and chaps on. They have already agreed to put their coins in together to save up for a horse. I refuse to be an Eeyore and tell them just how many dimes that would be.

Yes, we really need prayer.
