Words from Elaine a.k.a. Mommer

Tammy has such a wonderful, honest way of expressing her thoughts & faith, & I am so thankful for this blog! Today is April 25th, it was 1 year ago that we received the news of Jack's brain tumor. Those dreaded 2 words that one never thinks you would hear, but realize immediately that it will change our lives forever. Well, as you all know, we've had many ups & downs, many tears of joy & sadness. But one thing has remained constant through this past year-the strong faith & trust in God was so evident! It makes me so very proud to be the Mom/Mother-in-law of Rob & Tammy, who still hold tighter to the hand of Jesus when their hearts are breaking. They continue to serve our God & be faithful witnesses of His love & grace in times of need. I am so blessed to have our very brave little Jack & ever kind-hearted Derek & Sophie, the "always there when you need them" Tamara, Daryl, Lauren & Zach, my unselfish new husband Tom, & all the never-ending prayers & support of all you wonderful friends! We do not know what God has planned for our future, but I know we will continue to repeat the praises of Psa 18...The Lord is my rock, my fortress; my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield & the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise! God bless you all, Elaine
