We are so excited to announce that Luc's tumor is STABLE!!  Our supplications to the Lord have been granted.  We wanted him to be able to start school and have a normal life.  We are so hopeful that this will continue.  We don't really have to think about it for another 4-6 months.

Luc's grandpa called on Thursday asking him if he wanted to go for a quick trip to Panguitch.  Do I even need to say what his answer was?  He arrived back home today.  They fished, sighted in a gun, shot some clay pigeons, went to a rodeo, and relaxed. It was a good weekend for the two of them.

He is all ready to start school tomorrow.  He still thinks he needs a few more weeks of summer.

We are so grateful for the Lord's tender mercies.  He does look upon the heart and upon our ability to endure and each of our paths are so individualized so that we can all endure it well if we put our trust in Him.

This summer has been a well-deserved, normal summer.  We have enjoyed sleeping in, going to Panguitch, swimming, and friends.  It has been such a relief to not have to think about hospitals or treatment or meds, etc.

Luc's hair is thicker than ever.  In fact, I had to thin it out like crazy last time I cut it because we couldn't get a comb through it.  He was so handsome when he was bald and is just as handsome with his thick, curly hair.

This Tuesday, the 11th, we have an MRI scheduled.  As always, with an upcoming scan comes a little anxiety.  Luc has been having pain off and on and feels like the tumor is growing.  We won't know until the scan.  Our faith lies in God's purposes.  We know that we have sufficient faith for Luc to be healed.  If God is allowing it to grow, it just means that there is a greater purpose in that fact.  We trust Him and know that whatever the future holds, He will be with us and help us endure it well.

Again, prayers are greatly appreciated.  We feel the strengh and peace that comes with them.
