The Greats
A meeting of the “greats” took place at the parent’s home in MO. Our daughter, Jessica, and granddaughter, Amaya, came for the weekend for the first visit.
Mom Waid
Mom is currently in hospice care at home. Mike’s brother is providing care along with some additional help that comes in for a few hours each day. Mike has been visiting and assisting for the past 2 weeks. Amy and each of our four girls have traveled to MO recently to visit. Mom says she is ready to go to be with the Lord. She and Dad spend each day caring for each other.
The Girls
Rachel has moved to a new department at Northwestern Memorial Hospital where she works as a nurse, now in the Medical ICU. Jessica and baby Amaya moved to their own apartment in Chicago and she will be on leave from her teaching position with the Chicago Public School system. Monica continues her position as a Structural Engineer in West Palm Beach, Florida. Audrey currently works as a freelance advertising/branding manager which has allowed her to spend the last month at our home in Orlando.
Mike and Amy
Caring for parents, daughters, and granddaughters; along with multiple international ministry trips has left us a bit frazzled. We gather our daughters together for Thanksgiving in CO. But would like to stay at home for the rest of the year. Amazingly enough, we have maintained the neighborhood church amidst all our travels.
