Grant and Gavin was in my small group at Northwoods Church yesterday and if I had know they were Brian's children I would have hugged them just a little more. Michele told us after class of Brian's fate. I just wanted you to hear the comment that Gavin shared with me. We were hearing the story of Moses and the power that his staff had, and Gavin said that his Daddy had a cain and he wished that it had power to keep him alive, that just about tore out my heart as it would any human. I just want you to know that all of us will keep your family in our prayers and if their is anything that we can do please let me know. If you need food or a day that you need someone to help with the boys please contact me at gilbert_sharon_k@cat.com. we have several people that would like to help as we also know your father-in-law Ed who we worked with for many years. I've read your blog for a couple of years and your such a brave person and have much to be proud of on how you have handled a situation that no one should have to face in such a young life. I have great admiration for you and Brian. We know that you have lots of family and friends, but we are here waiting to help you, just give us the word...<BR/>God Bless all of you,<BR/> Sharon Gilbert<BR/> Caterpillar NACDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-40716328257111525.post-18705441100467710272009-01-21T15:28:00.000-06:002009-01-21T15:28:00.000-06:00LOL...you are too funny!

I thought, "I bet Angie is just shaking her head at this after living in Canada!" I grew up in Michigan, but when we lived in Raleigh, NC we got used to the nice weather QUICKLY! One day it was 28 degrees, and for a split second I thought, "This is CRAZY! I can't take the baby out in 28 degrees! He'll freeze!!" Then, I remembered I'm a Michigan girl. We went to the prom in strapless dresses in 28 degree weather! :-) JorieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-40716328257111525.post-44722463624613212602009-01-15T14:16:00.000-06:002009-01-15T14:16:00.000-06:00Send those crazy school board members (or whoever ...Send those crazy school board members (or whoever decides school is cancelled) up to Edmonton and we will show them what could is! Actually, we are expecting a record breaking heat wave this weekend (5 degrees!). We will probably put on our bathing suits and go outside to catch a tan. :o)<BR/><BR/>I remember when we lived in Nashville, the schools would be closed sometimes due to excessive rain.

I thought it couldn't possibly be but I better check just in case. And it's not but there are a ton that are. When my kids find that out they will be P.O.d. Sorry you will have to referree today.

I hope we make it. I've gotten too used to these 65 degree days (like today) in winter.

They let the kids out when there was maybe 1/2 inch of snow on the grass, not roads. At 3:30 when they should have gotten out, no snow anywhere to be seen. But hey, they got counted as being there!<BR/><BR/>Also, I don't comment much but I read your blog everytime you post. I also think of and pray for your family EVERY single day.Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06243740043552671477noreply@blogger.com
