Rejoice Always-Acknowledge His Ways

Overall Audrey's health has continued to decline some these past few weeks. Audrey is still eating and drinking fairly well, doesn't complain of much pain, but does have occasional discomfort around her left eye. We are thankful this is minimal and seems to come and go. Audrey had some pretty intense light sensitivity about a week or two ago, but that has seemed to let up some.

Audrey does have random incidences when the tumor bleeds, but the bleeding has been quite minimal. Hospice is now coming once a week. Audrey has been very comfortable with these visits and doesn't mind them- giving thanks for that :)

Audrey's days are pretty low key. She enjoys resting with Coco, our cat, and some gentle playing with her little sister. This is usually stuffed animals in Emma's room each morning. She will occasionally do some school work, enjoys playing Animal Crossing (a video game) and watching a show or two. She loves routine- Audrey still enjoys going to church on Sundays, as it has been apart of her routine since she was born, so we are thankful she feels that comfort and gets out of the house some.

We are incredibly thankful for all of your support.

The Lord's way is far greater than we can comprehend or even understand. Trials refine. He is working even in the midst of hardship-praying we walk in Spirit and truth.

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

We Walk By Faith

Audrey is continuing to hold on with the strength that is left. She is tired, weak and sleeps most of the time. We can continue to praise God she has no pain. Audrey has her routine, though most of it consists of sleeping. She enjoys a little chocolate milk, a yogurt smoothie, some applesauce and maybe some small bites of food here and there. With that said, eating and drinking is becoming more difficult, but Audrey manages with some assistance and help. Benjamin, Hannah and Emma continue to do well with this season we are in. They display loving hearts, asking if Audrey needs anything, praying for her and just sitting near her. We are so grateful for the tenderness they show Audrey and the peace they have knowing Audrey will likely be with Jesus soon. 2 Corinthians 5:1- 10 For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself an...

Memories Made - 2026 Summer Fun

This summer has proved to be a blessing in many ways. The Lord has blessed us with some amazing trips! We started off the summer with a trip to North Myrtle Beach. This has been our third trip to the same area. The boys found some incredible shark's teeth, we swam, made some friends, ate great food, and above all had family time without interruptions. It was a sweet memory for us all, remembering our time spent with Audrey at the beach. We enjoyed sharing memories of Audrey during our family walks in the evening. We enjoyed a two night stay at Lake Hope with some of our friends. The were plenty of crafts, food, hikes, and an evening of worship together around a fire. We were again, blessed by these memories. Lastly, we made our way up to Michigan with our good friends. The place were we stay carries many memories for us as family; this was a our fourth summer there. While it was hard without Audrey, each day we found solace in knowing that she is loved by her Savior, Jesus C...

He is With You

About a month has passed since our last update-Audrey continues to do well despite daily challenges. The cancer is continuing to spread, unfortunately this is something we can see visually. The tumor is now covering nearly her entire left eye and continues to grow outward. Audrey has not complained to this day. Her strength is inspiring to say the least. Audrey will have another nasal endoscopy this upcoming Tuesday. We are thankful this will likely relieve her sinuses. We are still under the impression nothing can be done externally. Palliative care has visited to simply put eyes on Audrey. We have been incredibly thankful she continues to have no pain. We have even visited with a social worker who has helped make a meaningful craft to build memories. Audrey continues to play outside, make beautiful drawings, go on walks, rest with Coco, read books on the couch, play Zelda and Mario Cart with her sisters and the list goes on. SO thankful for that. We have decided to pursue ...
