November, 23rd 2006... Mikey's new nephew.. Grandpa's little tough guy, has arrived just in time to make a great Thanksgiving even BETTER!

In this special Thanksgiving update, we announce the birth of Andrew Isaac.. born monday at 3:16pm.. 8lbs, 4oz, and 20¼ inches long. In the photo at top, little Andy can be seen with Mikey, grandma and grandpa. Mikey just LOVES this little guy, as we ALL do! In the photo below you can see little Emily getting acquainted with her little brother. As we give thanks and our families join for the traditional feast, we'd like to wish everyone a blessed Thanksgiving.

November, 26th 2006... What a blessed Thanksgiving we had! It was sunny and 77° and our families enjoyed a great "traditional" turkey feast with all the trimmings. But there aren't many pictures, because the cameraman (grandpa) was too busy playing with granddaughter Emily and our newest arrival.. Mikey's new nephew.. Grandpa's little tough guy. In the photo above, you can see little Andy sitting on grandpa's lap at a restaurant where we all ate breakfast yesterday morning. See what it says on my little tough guy's shirt: "In trouble? Call 1-800-Grandpa".. I love it! (Click on my shirt for a close-up.) See MANY more GREAT Andy photos (and a few Thanksgiving pics) HERE! ... And I'm still adding new photos. Life is good when you're walking in the FOG! (Favor Of God)

T.G.I.S. .. Thank God It's SONday, and we get to go to church today! God is Good!

Mikey is doing well. He has regular pacemaker checks via phone modem, and he visits his cardiologists in Little Rock. They have a new surgery team there that will perform Mikey's next heart surgery. It's hard to believe, as healthy as Mikey appears now, that he is still so very ill. The expectation is still that his life will "be short". That's what this page is about. Thousands of wonderful people have visited Mikey's page and prayed for him. Many have been inspired, blessed, and even found Jesus through these simple pages. It's suprising how many emails we have received from "back-slidden" couples and families who have returned to church after being inspired by Mikey's simple pages. To God be the glory. It's all about Him.

Mikey IS well. His last trip to Little Rock he saw his cardiologists and got a great report, thank You, Lord! He had ekgs, a pacemaker clinic and a heart echo done, and everything looked fine. The dacron conduit in his heart is clear and the porcine valve is working well for him. He still has "heart rub" and a leaky mitral valve, but medication is controlling the sinus tachycardia (fast heart rate), and we are all very happy with Mikey's progress since his latest heart surgery last summer.
