Okay guy's I am over a month now of no journal entries! So, so, sorry! Things are moving right along and life isn't slowing down...
Quick update: Tucker is doing GREAT! He likes work at the roofing Co. He looks 100% back to the Tuck we knew before. It's is so amazing, and such a miracle to me! There isn't anyone that Tuck and I met during all of this that has such a good story to tell. This can only be the work of the Lord. If he continues to stay good, he can turn his mission papers in the first of June, and can leave w-the Doc's permission in Sept! Just like Graduation, he will squeak right through. He did scare us though with a crash up at Snow Bowl in Flagg a few weeks ago. He crashed and was knocked unconscious. He went into convulsions and even foamed at the mouth. He woke up when they were getting him into the ambulance. He has come out of it all fine, but with a good concussion. That kid will be the death of me!

Everything else is moving forward. I got a job and I love it! Mon-Fri, I can drop kids off and pick them up from school, so it's perfect. A little weird after not working for 20 yrs. But the group I work with are wonderful and so willing to teach me..... This job is also a gift from the Lord.
Life has gotten so busy and on to more normal things. When I look back on all this it is so obvious that we were carried, we seemed to walk with the spirit more. So my goal is to get back there to that place that felt more heavenly, and stay. Even when we are not faced with a life threatening illness, we need to do our part so we can walk close to him always. It will take a lot of work and determination on my part. But is something I will constantly strive for.

I love you all

Sandy
P.S. Thank you Kristen for all you wonderful posts!
