First off, I hope you all had a blessed Easter.
I am sorry I haven't updated in such a long time. I have been taking care of both my granddaughters full-time, and they keep me busy (and tired)! My older granddaughter turned 3 in January; and my younger one is now almost 5 months old. So, I am pretty wiped by the end of the day. But I wouldn't trade it for the world! I have so much fun with them!
David turned 20 on April 12th. Every birthday that he has now is a milestone; and a miracle. They told us he wouldn't live much past his 15th birthday; but God is clearly not done with David yet! We thank God every day for another day with David. The day of his birthday was a bit chaotic. Rachel was maid of honor in a wedding for a girl at our church, so we kinda had to go to that. David didn't want to go, so he stayed with Jeremy and Lucy (and Elena and Olivia). I figured it's his birthday, he didn't have to go! So we ended up celebrating his birthday on Sunday. He wanted me to make steak fajitas, so that's what I made. And he didn't want a birthday cake, he wanted cupcakes! So, overall, he had a good birthday. Bryon and I gave him his birthday present on his birthday, because we wanted him to have it for Sunday. He wanted, and we gave him, a David Jeremiah study bible! He loves it! I adore David Jeremiah! He is an amazing man. Great Godly man!! So, that was David's birthday.
David finally had his MRI on Friday in San Francisco. It was a long day! We left the house around 7:15 or so; and got there at 11:30-ish. We were supposed to get there at 12:30 for a 1:00 appointment; but we never know what the traffic is going to be like, so we always have to leave ourselves a cushion of time. Since we were there early they took him in early. They came and got him at 12:15 (so it wasn't too bad of a wait). They told us it would be a one hour MRI. David was stressing out in the waiting room about being in the machine that long. He said, "It's just knowing it's not going to be just a quick X-ray." We were praying for him to be calm; he does get claustrophobic. He has almost had to be sedated for MRIs in the past. Anyway, they took him and Bryon and I sat and waited. After an hour we expected to see him anytime. Well, finally at 2:15 he came back! It was a long MRI. We don't have any results yet, I will post when we know something. For now we play the waiting game. I am really tired of playing that game!! So that is the haps with the MRI.
Things are busy, as usual, around here. Please continue to pray for the Koury Klan. There are some issues that we need prayer for. Thank you.
Well, that is about it for now. Thank you for stopping by and reading. God bless you all. We love you.
