Merry Christmas!

Hi girls! I wanted to write a quick note and say Merry Christmas to you and your families. So, it's been kind of a tough year all around but I pray you will have a wonderfully happy Christmas and New Year. Praise God for the start of a new year! I hope it will bring us all together at some point, but we can worry about that later :) I love you all so very much.

I have some sad and scary news as well. I found out yesterday morning that my sister (who was 6 months pregnant) had to have an emergency c-section. Her blood pressure was really high and her platelets were really low. (I don't really know what all that means but I don't ask questions.) Anyway, the baby is just over 2 pounds but as far as I know is still alive and is on a respirator. My sister has already had a miscarriage and she and my parents have been very nervous about this pregnancy. Please keep her and her husband Joe and her very little baby girl in your prayers right now. They can really use it.
