FIRST OFF: HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE!!!
Michelle is my sister but probably more accurately described as an administering angel for countless individuals and families!! Throughout her lifetime she has been a person that would drop just about anything to come to the aid and comfort of those around her. Multiple family members have been blessed by her ability to help, support, succor and love us through extraordinary and somewhat overwhelming challenges!! I am sure we have no way of counting up all those that have been touched by her gifts of compassion, long suffering and selflessness!! Michelle, I know that no matter how hard we could try to be able to express and show you of our gratitude for your selfless life we would still fall short of what you deserve in return! We love you deeply, unconditionally and eternally!!
Ronald Update:
Everything is still about the same. (which we choose to feel is pretty great) He does continue to have irregular heart palpitations that continue to confuse the doctors a bit... they have changed medications today to see if that helps! He is on his 20th day after Chemotherapy and we are hoping and expecting for his counts to start rising by the end of this week, and then he can get a bone marrow biopsy to see how things are progressing!!
Although Ronald has still been holding on to his hair pretty well, it continues to fall out throughout the day and it has been driving Ronald crazy so to celebrate Michelle's Birthday we liberated Ronald a bit by having our "twins" ( actually pretend twins, Ryker and Syvanna) Shave his head.... they loved it and Ronald loved it!!! Ronald is one that still looks soo handsome even without a blade of hair!!
DAILY DEVO:
For today just thought to challenge all to atleast be reading The Living Christ and think about the life of our Savior Jesus Christ and the unmatched love and impact his life has on ours individually and as friends, family and humanity. We also invite any who would like to join Ronald in memorizing it to do so... he is currently starting this week on the first paragraph in the second column. I've posted a link to the document we're speaking of for those of you that do not have one.

DAILY CHUCKLE:
What are three candies you can find in every classroom?
Nerds, Dum Dums and Smarties
You are sooo right! Michelle is truly incredible. I have always been incredibly impressed with her intuitiveness and love for others. You can't help but feel her love when you are around her! Yay for birthday celebrations, and yay for people like the Simmons that can make a celebration out of a haircut!! Ronald.....you look handsome as ever. Sending our LOVE!
