Thanksgiving

Hi this is Lindsay again, I hope you all are having a wonderful Thanksgiving. I feel so thankful for our Lord and Savior Jesus for loving us in spite of ourselves. I am am thankful for my family my husband Peter and our children and our extended family. We spent the holiday with Peter's family his mom crammed 25 people in their house which is not as big as our home for even though they are well off you would not know if for they live modestly and she taught me to clip coupons and be on the look out for bargains. Jane likes to help those in need and missionaries. Peter's sister Kelly and Paul and their children Matthew and Natasha were there.  Peter's aunt and uncle and his cousins were also there as well as a few people from their church that did not have family to spend the holiday with. We feasted on turkey and I made crock pot macroni and cheese and sweet potato caserole and Kelly made brocholie caserole and pumpkin pie and Jane made everything else. My favorite part of the day was when we went around the table and said something they were thankful for. I wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving.    

Lindsay's updates-Peter and aAnna's birthdays

The last time I posted anything on here was in July but the computer died before I could post on September 3 which is Peter and Anna's birthday (Peter said that his daughter is his favorite present even though she was born a month early under difficult circumstances.) That afternoon we had some of Anna's friends over to the house for a party and her grandparents (Peter's parents) and her aunt Kelly and her cousin Matt were all there. That night the kids' grandparents stayed at our house so we could go out to dinner for Peter's birthday and some of his friends met us at the restaurant and he opened some presents. Later on we came home and ate some cake and ice cream. I feel so blessed to have my wonderful family. My parents did send him a Christian book and they sent Anna a doll.  

Laura's update

I am sorry I have not posted anything in quite some time I was having some computer difficulties and ended up getting another computer but I am back now.  I hope you all are doing well. I have personally been dealing with a lot last month I was sick with a sinus infection which cleared up in time for us to take our self-advocates of Meck. group on a cruise to the Bahamas. When we got home my husband Rob got sick and ended up in the hospital with a bacterial infection-he is well now thank God. The car died and we had to get a new one. Our beloved cat Tigger 2 ran away on Halloween two weeks ago and has not been seen since but we are still praying that he will by some miracle return home.  My husband Rob is out of work and is looking so hopefully he will find something soon. He has mostl  recently been working with people with developmental disabilities. I have not been doing so much writing lately although my friend Daniel is editing book 2 so hopefully we can find a publisher that won't charge a lot of money like I had to pay to get Lindsay published and will pay me to get the other books publishd since I don't have so much money to pay a publisher at the moment so don't give up on Lindsay and her story and get the word out about it so we can get more copies of Lindsay sold. Lindsay is now on display at the downtown Charlotte library and is for sale at the Park Rd. book store and you can always order a copy on http://www.xlibris.com/.
