Crap.

Sorry to have a lull in the blog-posting arena the past several days. I've been trying to wrap my head around some news about my oldest brother, Josh, that has shocked us all. On Friday night Josh went in for surgery to have a fistula repaired in between his colon and bladder, and came out of surgery with the news that he had six inches of his colon removed, and they found vast amounts of cancer throughout his GI tract. Cancer. Wow. What? Yeah.

Friday night was full of tears and trying to get my head wrapped around the reality of the situation. Saturday was a bit of a blur- pulled weeds, cried, zoned out, held back more tears, watched a movie....

By Saturday afternoon I was able to feel more at peace with the situation and do some processing with David and JJ regarding what was happening. A welcomed relief has been seeing Lucy's smiling face on a daily basis. Her eyes and smile just melt my heart every time!

The decision was made for us to stay in Nashville until the recording project that David and JJ have been working on is finished. They just have one more day now, and the project has turned out so well!

Right now we are just taking things day by day with Josh's situation, and asking for lots and lots of prayer. Please join our family in asking the Lord for peace over this unforseen circumstance, and that He would be glorified through it all.

I love you bro!
