Adam:

I think this will have been one of the most memorable Christmas's for my family. In the Roy took a turn spending the night with Mom on Dec 24, so Christmas morning I was able to go eat breakfast with the Clark family, and we just had a great time of fellowship there! Krista taught them how to make Egg Butter, a Van Cleve Christmas morning tradition. We ate taco's for Christmas dinner, your taco's are a hit with us Mrs Macdonald!

We spent most of the day with Mom, and were excited to see she had learned new tricks! she can now move her right ankle and toes! A large part of the Criss family came to visit Christmas night and Mom was So happy to see them.

Mom had a really hard night and did not sleep much at all Christmas night. The staples that held Mom's Skull together been have been pulled out today.

Prayers are being answered every day, her right side is coming back now. It will take a lot of therapy to get her strength back, but we have great faith in Jesus that he can, if he wills, restore her strength and health.

  1. We had a nice time visiting you all yesterday!

    Cynthia, you are looking better each time we see you. I thought I saw your right foot moving. Praise the Lord!

    Krista, can you post your Van Cleve Egg Butter recipe so we all can try it out?

    Now that Christmas is over Joe says we can do nothing but pack. Today, he and Joseph worked on taking apart the hoop house. It's all emptied out and they started disassembling the ends. I worked on the filing cabinets. I filled up one garbage can with papers and have a pile of paper garbage on the floor, and have one box packed with the "keepers". It feels good to throw away old stuff. I have one and a half cabinets emptied and one and a half to go. I will work on it again tomorrow after church and lunch. Our stuff leaves in less than 3 weeks and the children and I leave in 27 days.

    Take care,
    Love,
    Linda
