Happy Birthday, Steve!

"Gift of Life" has never rang truer than it does this year and we praise our Heavenly Father for the gift of dad's life! God has given so many good gifts as dad has been recovering the last few months.

Here's just a quick recap of the incredible milestones:

• October 5: Dad fully graduated PT/OT. He's going to the gym and golfing on a regular basis. He even went golfing for his birthday this weekend, walking all 9 holes for the first time (previously drove the cart) and managed without wearing his mobile oxygen tank! This is undeniable healing and improvement in his lung health.
• October 19: Dad started a new job! This came in God's perfect timing as he was feeling strong enough mentally and physically to go back full time. God provided a fully remote position that's a perfect fit.
• Looking ahead to March 2022, dad gets to be a grandpa again as Jon and Allyson welcome another girl to the family! 

God is so good and we're so grateful for the many, many ways He's answering countless prayers! We're so grateful to Him for each and every one of you for following dad's Covid journey, lifting him up in prayer and encouraging us along the way. We know He responded to your prayers to heal dad and bring him back home. As dad has said, his job here isn't done and we can't wait to see what the more is that God has in store for him!

We know it's by His merciful hand that we get to close this chapter and sign off with the old cliche, "The Best is Yet to Come"
