I was going to be computer savvy and use some of the pictures from Greg's blog about his marathon, but, alas, it did not work. So instead, check out both Greg and Cheryl's amazing accounts. I cannot imagine what he went through to accomplish this goal but I am so glad Chris and Cheryl were there to cheer Greg on. Very cool.

More good news. Kylie was released from the hospital today. Tomorrow I get to hold both twins and cannot wait! Pictures to come. And speaking of pictures, we took some fun ones of Christa, Reece and Hayden Sunday. Aren't they the cutest?

Something cool that Xerox is doing... It's free for you!

If you go to this web site: www.letssaythanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services. I like this idea...

And for my reality check, last night I woke up at 4:00 AM and could not go back to sleep for a long time. 4:00 AM was the time I used to wake Laurie up to get her moving for early Starbucks duty. I have to think God is prompting me to use this time to pray. The list is long: major health deals for dear friends and family, security for many, deep grief experienced by lots of us, trusting in Him for so many...I probably could have stayed up the rest of the night praying. I am trusting in the knowledge that God knows my heart and it was okay to finally go back to sleep. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I was up at 3am (for a different reason feeding Josey) and I felt compelled to do the same...pray for so many of the same things you mentioned. And I will tell you, I felt such a feeling of contentment when I woke up this morning.
God is so good!!
