Happy Sunday

Hi everyone.

It is a very frigid Sunday in Broken Bow. I am snuggled at the dining room table watching all the birds and squirrels at the feeders. What a joy! And people ask me what I am going to do when I retire, lol.

Hunter is much better. For those who did not know, he came down with chicken pox on Friday, December 5. He was really covered with pock marks. The following Wednesday, he suffered severe pain in his ears, jaw and throat, as the pox had attacked his ear canals. After some bumbling by the local yokel Doctors, Russ and Paula took him to Kearney, where they diagnosed a massive infection in his ears. He had severe pain, and missed school until last Thursday, when he went half a day. I am sure glad he does so well in his classes, or he would really be behind after missing that much. Anyway, he is smiling again, and feeling better each day.

I am excited to open the mail each day because so many of you have sent delightful pictures, letters and cards. We will have our family celebration Friday the 26th. Colton did not get his Christmas leave, so we will be missing him. A lot.

Merry Christmas everyone, and stay warm.
