I'm sure that I speak for our entire family when I say that we are so thankful for the support and prayers that have been offered for Dad and the family. It's a testament to what a great man our father is!
As far as the family goes, we've been shaken. Mom is strong, and I know that helps Dad. She is a rock, always has been! Andrew and his family drove from Selah on Sunday and spent a few days visiting and will return for Christmas. Amanda and her family arrived Monday from Poceatello, and will also be there for Christmas. I know that having them there has brightened both Mom and Dad's spirits. Grandma Packard, Kathy, Jodi and their families will be up that way for the holiday and will gather to share presents and dinner on Christmas day. It's such a blessing to be a part of such a strong family!
It's been difficult for me to have no choice but stay home for the time being. I want to be there, to feel useful in all of this. But it eases my mind knowing that they are taking care of one another.
We love you all and wish you a very Merry Christmas!
