A Post from Josh


Dear Listeners,

Thank you for your prayers. I would like to bless you. Mr. Brown it's pretty hard to draw my room, but I'll work at it. Today I was checked by an opthomologist. We got to have the boss help with the check. My vision is 20/20. That's good is what he said. Teachers, La Pine and everyone that's praying for me, thank you.

Josh

Hay You'all

Well this is the fourth time I am going to try this. If it does not work this time I will just do it the old fashened way and send a card. Sure did miss you on T-day. It sure would have been nice if you had been here to help eat all that food. Grandpa Buck put the Christmas display up today. I am going to put the tree up Dec. 1. It is so great to know you have good drs. and the Greatest One Of All is watching over the earthly ones. What a comfort it is to know that God is always with us. Love to all and goodnight.

Hey Josh,

so if you have 20/20 vision and you are seeing two of everything does that make it 20/20/20/20 or 40/40???? Glad things are going well and miss you all. How many dog names have you put on the game so far? Glad those are dogs and not tribels!! (you might have to ask Gr Norm about tribels)

Love to all and see you tues

Josh,
Just think of the objects in your room --if they are are cubes or spheres and then keep refining the shape until it becomes the object. Do you have a window? I hope so. It's always nice to see outside.
The joy of the Lord is our strength. Your strength is blessing to everyone.
Keeping your desk just for you,
Mark

Well Hello Josh

How did you come up with the name Fred?

I hear you are going to join Aunt Linda's bald head club. There are a few rules. 1. You have to have a lump or two. No smooth pretty heads. 2. ALL hair gone bald. A few wisps left here or there do not count. Are you game?

It is not so bad at all. You get to wear some pretty cool hats n stuff. Wait till ya see mine! And it grows back pretty fast. Oh, and I found some of the coolest colered hair gels for when it is growing back. I'll bring them at Christmas.

Glad to hear you have some great doctors and nurses. You will probably end up with extra good vision, x-ray or something!

Love you lot's,
Aunt Linda and Uncle Rob

Hi Josh--

Good to have a "post" from you. Fantastic news about your vision. I just know in my heart that this is all going to work out fine and you will be back at school before you know it. I bet you are looking forward to getting back to school. Did you ever think you'd be looking forward to going back to school?LOL
Can't wait to see you!!
Your Friend, Kirstin

Jan said...

Hi! Wow, we just got home & my head is spinning getting caught up to speed here. Just want to let you know we love you all, & have you in our hearts and prayers. Now I'm gonna go read the rest of this blog! hearts and prayers, Jan and family.

Hey Josh, Lori, Bruce and Sarah,
Wow, how quickly life can change. One minute you're getting ready for Thanksgiving break in little La Pine and the next minute you're painting the town in Seattle. One minute you're running up and down the basketball court and the next minute you're getting ready to evict "Fred" from your head. If life's taught me anything about one minute to the next, it is that God is in control and that is a very comforting thing.
I appreciate your blog and the daily updates. I feel like I am all caught up now that I've read them all.
Well, one more day and it's back to school (personally, I'm praying for a nice blizzard Sunday evening and a snow day Monday, in addition to praying for you all and those traveling in the blizzard to come see you :)). Take Care.

Hey Josh-

I just read my email and got caught up on everything. Now first, tell your mom not to worry, the math teacher will come through with some homework. It's what I do. I thought you could work on that 20/20/20/20 or 40/40 problem you Aunt Loretta sent. It's really nice having this blog to keep in touch and we will miss you very much on Monday. Keep in good spirits - we will be thinking of you!

Jenny said...

Hey Cuz!
It's good to hear the good news. Hope you get to go to the zoo if you can. weather in Salem is windy and rainy. I heard on the news that it might snow in Seattle. I also heard that Bald heads are the newest fashion. You know girls really dig bald guys! Pop's told me to tell you that you were the frist person his sunday school class prayed for, mine too, and Jenny's. God's in control. Love you lots.

Lori and Bruce, Sarah and especially Josh,
I have tried about 6 times to leave a comment. Maybe this time will get through. Our Prayers are constant and for you that God's peace will be with all of you and that you will lean and trust totally on Jesus. I know you are trusting. Thank you for keeping us so up to date. We want to be with you and we feel that we almost are.
You have blessed us so much as we read all the praises to the Lord. He is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us. Ephesians 3:20
What a work He has already done.
Praise God.
Love, Dick and Emily

Susan Lawrence said...

Hey Josh!
Snow in Seattle? I can hardly believe it! Must feel more like home now that you see some white stuff!
We will continue to pray for you and the family, and hope to see you back at school SOON!
Doc said 20/20? Does that mean you aren't seeing double anymore? I love the comment about 20/20/20/20 or 40/40 vision, that was kinda funny!
I'm so glad you have such a great attitude about this FRED thing...
