Christmas Eve

Today is Christmas Eve, and when we woke up we realized that today was the original due-date for Anarazell. So today started out a bit rough. We tried to make it a good day, with varying success. We took Isabella out to eat, visited Brian and Julie for awhile, played a game together and are now getting ready to make something for dinner...something that is easy to make!
I am thankful that Jen and I are able to talk with each other. Even though some hard things come up and our emotions are raw, I much prefer that then silence!
We are planning on going to church with Gary, Kathy and family tomorow. It will be good to get out of the house and spend some time worshiping God with a group of believers. It is easy for us to lose focus on what is the true meaning for the season, and get wrapped up in what we are going through right now, but God is still God, and because of His coming to earth over 2000 years ago, we can have the peace and the hope that we are feeling today.


We wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone and thank everyone who has been here for us during this time. We will get to personal thank-you's when we can, but for now..."THANK-YOU!!".



Merry Christmas from the Phlaum family.

(Isabella is excited about her new baby doll.)
