Greetings from Florida

Hey everybody,

We are in Florida!  Yay, palm trees!  We like them.  Flight was amazing.  The fire department shot water at our plane in honor of Coltrane on the runway.  Jackson even got a personal tour of the engine, and got to shoot the water!  Coltrane wanted to stay with Mommy.  :)  We also got REAL wings for the kids.  Metal ones, that is, which is very rare these days.  Jack and Coltrane got to sit in the pilot's seat and push the throttle of the airplane (while in park).  Flight was smooth.  BTW, the people on the plane applauded us as the water guns were shot at the plane, and also as we exited the aircraft.  We were escorted by one of Sandra's students who works for XNA.  He put us in front of the whole line.  We felt so special and can't believe the generosity and kindness of this man.  

     I know I'm jumping around, sorry.  So....Florida.  We were very happy with our accommodations through Make-A-Wish.  Jackson was bowled over by some waves and so was I.  :)  We don't have the ability to process what God is doing right now.  He is blessing us financially like MAD.  Truly....madness.  We are so thankful to all the helpers, supporters, friends, elders, fellow students, and some of my professors.  We love everyone.  Our testimony continues to find itself on the beach, in the lobby, in the grocery store, etc.  God is good.  

GOOD NEWS FOR COLTRANE:

He is doing SO well.  To God be the glory, seriously.  He is literally ravenous.  We haven't seen him this active and playful in a long time.  He seems to be in better spirits.  He is very comfortable, and laughs sometimes.  Jack and him are getting along pretty well.  Sonja and I are absorbing this unique opportunity to be thankful for every single moment in our marriage and our lives.  And to the people that God has used whether Christian or not, we thank Him for that help and support.  We love all of you.  Here are some pics, thus far.

Love,

Justin,
