Not been the best of weeks.....let's see, Nathan is now scheduled for surgery to remove his tonsils, and we are finding out more about the H1N1 virus than we ever wanted to know.  Apparently it is making its rounds on the base here, and it seems that we may have acquired it!  Janelle was very sick this week, and is now on Tamiflu (third trimester, high risk - they put her on it before test results were in)...and Willie and I are experiencing a milder version of whatever it is that she has!   And now....Nathan has come down with it, and believe me, he is NOT an ideal patient!!  To add insult to injury, someone scratched an obscenity into the back passenger door of Janelle's SUV!   Like, I said....not the best of weeks!  But I am reminded that our time here is ordained of God, and that we are here to help....and we have been.....getting lots of "Mimi and Papa" time with the boys and helping Janelle out in any way we can.  We are grateful that Janelle seems to be on the recovery side of this stuff, along with Willie, and hopefully Nathan and I won't be too far behind!

This is Nathan's new favorite activity....."craft time".  He asks me each day if we can do a "cwaft".....I love it!

Zach looked like he was enjoying "cwaft time" too, didn't he?  AND, miracle....he didn't have his cheesy posed grin on his face!

Nathan doesn't look too sick here, does he?  Just full of mischief...our little Dennis the Menace!


Have a wonderful Lord's Day tomorrow...guess we'll have our own "church" here since we don't want to pass along whatever (H1N1?) it is that we have....but God meets us anywhere, so the place doesn't matter....just the state of our hearts.
