Rachel turned 3!!
Hard to believe, but Rach is 3. It seems to have gone by so fast, I hardly remember her as a baby. Maybe she has always been a big girl. :-)
Well, here are pictures of her and Sami this morning eating birthday cake. They both ended up ditching the forks a few bites in and opted for the hands. Guess you can get more cake in your mouth that way.

Latest Updates and Pictures are here!!
Sorry it has taken me so long to put a new post out.
Update on Jerome's back: He is doing physical therapy on his own and is seeing some improvement. The back surgery that was suggested was very invasive and had high risk for future surgeries. This didn't seem like the option for us. He has his bad days and his good days. Thank God he has had more good days than bad lately.
Update on my migraines: I had a good month with very few migraines. However, I have had this last migraine since Saturday afternoon and can't seem to shake it. Please still pray that God would take this ailment away.
Update on the girls: Rachel is turning 3!! She will be 3 on Saturday. We can hardly believe it. She is growing up so fast. Seems like yesterday that I was watching her birthmother carry her. I spoke with an old friend that I haven't seen in 3 years today. We could hardly believe that time passed so quickly. Before you know it, Rachel will be married and having her own children. Praise God.
Well, here are some pictures that we had taken this past weekend. I think they are so cute...but then again, I am biased. ;-)
Love,
Lessie

Not looking good for Jerome's back
Well, we just got bad news from the surgeon. According to him, Jerome is looking at a 'spinal fusion' in his lower back. We do not want to go that route because of the complications associated with the procedure. As well, the procedure sets him up for a lifetime of addtional surgeries. So, we have scheduled a followup for May 1st. I will post again then.
Jerome's MRI results also came back for his shoulders. He has some bone spurs, a tear in some tendon (sorry, I can never remember actual names) and tendonitis in his rotator cuff. Interestingly enough, he has the same thing in both shoulders. HUMMM.....so we have a second opinion scheduled for this as well on April 18th. Hopefully, this will be very minor, just some PT or something.
Thank you all for the prayers. We have gotten emails and calls just checking in. Thank you. Things are a bit rough here right now. I don't want to go into too much detail, but I have been dealing with migraines off and on for a few weeks and this last migraine is still here after 3 days. I think it is hormonal and hope for it to be gone soon. So your prayers on this would be greatly appreciated.
Please remember that prayer isn't the LEAST you can do, it is the MOST you can do. To call upon the assistance, grace and peace of our Great Savior is quite an awesome thing. Thank you. With God all things are possible. Even if they seem impossible or even if we can't even imagine them with our tiny finite minds, they are POSSIBLE. He is a great and gracious Lord, He loves His children and we hope that it is his plan to take these issues from us. However, if it is His will that we suffer thru them, we pray that He gives us the strength and peace to walk thru and be sanctified.
Please feel free to call me or Jerome to check our progress.
Love in Christ,
Lessie

WE'RE BACK!!!!!!
Hi All,
We had a good time in Morganza, LA. The girls were under slept and over stimulated, which made a bad situation for trying to keep them under control. But with everyone's help, we made it thru. We look forward to doing this trip every couple of years.
Thank you to Mrs. June (Jerome's mom) for all of her hospitality. She opened her home to my family and even out of towners to come and visit us. I wish I had invited more people to join us in visiting in Morganza. We all visited Bryan (my brother) and had a good time. He is doing well, he is in the woodworking shop most of his day. He is also teaching a math class and a deacon for the local fellowship. He loved my girls and of couse, they LOVED him. Email me (jeromeandlessie@hotmail.com) if you want his address to correspond with him. I will be posting pictures soon, so be on the look out. I am sure that you will find my girls almost as adorable as I do.
We love y'all!
