More Catching Up




This will be my last post for tonight. I am playing catch up. :) Casey is doing splits on a regular basis at the football games, so I figured that I would post a picture of her doing her split. Now she is not doing her normal split in this picture, cause her legs are usually straighter than they are in the pic. Now I also wanted to post a pic of how Casey dressed for hat day. First off, the weather has been a little chilly in the mornings but warming up in the afternoon. The school had hat day last week, in a way to get the kids involved in homecoming week. So Casey looked everywhere for her pink Atlanta hat. Since she couldn't find it she decided on the two she is wearing in the pic. Now she also had on a pair of shorts with a shirt to match, the sweatshirt jacket, a scarf, and she was wearing flip flops on her feet. She just loves her flip flops. She will even wear them with a sweat outfit. I took a pic of her with this get up because I was thinking she was dressing more for Diva Day than for hat day.

Now I also want to give some updates on my aunt Nunu. She is now out of the hospital and has been for a couple of weeks. She has completed her antibiotics, and the doc said that her blood work looked good, except her potassium was low. She is going to have to start a new Chemo drug this Thursday, and this is to keep the cancer from spreading. This new one is suppose to kill the blood supply or the cells to the cancer, or something like that. Nunu has been feeling this week so far. She went out to eat with us on Sunday and went shopping at the local Wally World. We were all glad to see her get out. She needed a little bit of fresh air.
Norma has been an inspiration to all of us. She has been fighting the cancer now for 3 years, and no matter how sick she has gotten from the treatments or from the food, her spirits have been up. She just keeps on fighting. She hasn't lost her faith, and the Lord has blessed her with this strength and this courage. We all are inspired by her. I can not say that if I were to go through what she has and still is that I would have made it this long. I pray everyday that she keeps this strength and that the Lord just continues to touch her body in a way that only he can. Only he can keep her strength and her courage as strong as she needs to have it. I know that he has his arms around her and is with her every step of the way.
This weekend is the Women's Conference at our church. It is the 10th annual conference. And this makes my 7th year going and this makes my 6th year anniversary for me being saved. Every year I have been going I get a blessing. We have a wonderful group of ladies come from Ohio to sing and preach, and it is just wonderful. This year Nunu is going to try and go and actually just sit so she can hear the Norths sing. This will be the first year that Nunu hasn't been busy with the working part of the conference. So I am praying that she feels well enough to go and that she gets the blessing that she needs. Keep her and Sheryl in your prayers. Sheryl is staying at home with Nunu to keep her company, take care of her needs, and to spend some quality time with her. So Sheryl needs your prayers too.
Thanks! God Bless.
