Good evening.

It was a busy day today, as usual. David pretty much had a lazy day. He played games for most of the day. We did go to church tonight~~it was very good. David ate ok, not great, but ok. Yesterday he ate great! Well, for lunch anyway. He had 8 tacos! Yes, you read that right, 8. He told me he wanted 3 (they were leftovers from dinner the other night), so I gave him 4. Then he wanted 2 more; then he wanted 2 more!!!! I couldn't believe he ate so much. Then he went to PT, and got a stomach ache. PT in the afternoon is hard for him. But he still did his best, which is all we ask of him. Then on the way home I stopped at Dutch Bros. for him and got him an iced Milky Way coffee (I keep a container of change in my car for just such an occasion!). So it was a special treat for him after working so hard at PT.

Today was busy for me and Rachel. We baked today! We made the dough for one batch of cookies that have to chill for 3-4 days. Then I made banana bread. Then the two of us made Snowball Cookies (yes, they are the same as Mexican Wedding Cakes and Russian Tea Cakes), Cherry Snowball Cookies, Sugar Cookies (Rachel had fun with the cookie cutters), and jam-filled Thumbprint Cookies. We still have quite a bit of baking left to do, but that is all we did for today. Whew. Busy day; but I had fun with my daughter. So we will be doing some more baking tomorrow; and every night after work.

Sara had all her tubes removed, and was hoping to go home today. I haven't heard, so I don't know if she is at home or not. Please pray for her pain to go away. This is a very painful surgery; I remember David's thoracotomies! Thank you for your prayers.

Please remember all our Osteo family members who are 'celebrating' this Christmas without their precious children this year. Thank you.

I am so thankful that we are not in the hospital for Christmas this year, like we were in 2007;

and I am thankful that we are not looking at another surgery a few days after Christmas, like last year. This year we just get to celebrate Christmas with the 7 of us enjoying being together. Relaxing and no looming surgery hanging over our heads. Of course, David's scans are sometime in January, but we don't know when, yet. I will keep you posted!

Thank you for all your prayers. Please keep praying for our finances and our 'special request.' We appreciate it so much.

Another answer to prayer, we got some firewood on Friday! Thank you Alan! Our house is warmer than it has been in a week! We appreciate the wood!!

Thank you for visiting and checking in on David and the Koury Klan. Have a good night. God bless you all. We love you.
