Well, the latest scoop around here besides 2 birthdays and Da coming to visit is that if Mommy is not significantly better by tomorrow morning they are going to admit her to the hospital. She's now on her fourth antibiotic which we think is why Elsie has a rash that covers her whole body, the poor thing. So if you could please pray that Mommy (Tina) has a major healing within her body to take away the pneumonia (she had x-rays on Saturday to confirm her diagnosis) and that Elsie's rash would go away. Also, Willa is having a really hard time with her food allergies lately. She also is not feeling well, but we don't really know what's wrong. So please keep her in your prayers as well.
Thank you so much. Thank you everyone who has brought food to us. You all are such a blessing.
By God's grace this morning we were able to make it to church. That was the first time in 6 weeks that I had been to church. It was good to be back, although we had to leave early because Willa wasn't feeling well.
We know that God causes ALL THINGS to work for the good of those who love Him, and that this is all just an outpouring of God's love on us. He is growing us. I think the WV Howards would all say that the Lord has taught each one of us through this. Our Creator is growing us spiritually, physically, mentally, abilitally. We know this is for our eternal good, and we are truly thankful for God's sustaining power in all things. To God be the glory.

Hello Olivia and family,
Hopefully this unexpected surprise note will cheer up your day and take your mind off the consistant flow of bad news around your house these days. Progress appears to be rather slow in accumulating those 6 last comments doesn't it? So I'm going to do my part and stop mercilessly ignoring a sick girl's plea. However, you are not about to find out who I am so quickly; you have to read all these clues and then guess my identity. Remember now, I may just have easily already left a comment which means this wouldn't count in your race to 10! So it's up to you to break my cryptic code, decipher my identity, and then decide whether this moves you to just 5 more comments needed or keeps you at 6! Ready?? Have Fun!!
Clue #1 You have pictures of me on your computer.
Clue #2 I'm right around the same age as someone in your family.
Clue #3 I first found out about your illness from a different source than your blog.
Clue #4 I've played two instruments and have worked many jobs without pay.
Clue #5 There have been times which I've stumbled across a little publication put out by a close conclave of friends that you might happen to know of.
Clue #6 I'm a persuasive saleperson and have even tryed my hand at politics a time or two.
Clue #7 I have made two comments on blogs in my life.
(Think you know me?? Think again...)
Clue #8 I'm younger than three in my family yet older than one.
Clue #9 I happen to know for a fact that I am not one of the people that you were conting off in your head.
Clue #10 You can testify to the fact that I am not a culinary specialist nor an adept seamstress.
Clue #11 My pets are Living Free.
Clue #12 "Sprinkles" has previously referred to me as the second most famous Noah in history. (can you believe what a complement that is??)
Clue #13 The computer I am using to type this message is not my own or my family's.
Clue #14 I've known everyone in your family for quite some time. (at least in my opinion)
Clue #15 Lastly, I can speak parts of 6 different languages, "Yo estoy una persona clandestina. Ese era un frase sencillo y muy facil entender. Comprende??
Well that's all the clues...You know who am I but am I who you are thinking of right now?? maybe?? probably not though?? Read this slowly and carfully. Every statement above is 100% true,but some are more true than others... get it?? Ask me if I'm the one who wrote this but Don't Ask The Wrong Person!!! Be careful... Sincerely,
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
psst... you might find it beneficial to translate the part after clue #15, but I'm not telling what language.
