Wow, just read my last blog.  That was a hard one.  Well, continuing from that moment, the doctors took xrays, did really cool 3-D pics of the heart, did a bunch of tests and it showed that his heart is functioning properly and perfectly healthy.  So, they don't think it is heart related.  It could be spasms of the esophagous (not sure if I spelled that correctly) or it could be spasms of arteries.  BUT in order to come to those conclusions you have to run more tests.  Jerik was tested out.  So, if this happens again, we will do the rest of the tests but for now that is  going well.  Thank you for the prayers and support, they meant alot.

Can't believe how quickly time has flown!  It is almost the 4th of July!!!! Ericka got her Associates Degree in the mail yesterday - we are very proud of her, now she will be on her way to K-State!  Jerik completed his Freshman year at Emporia - he has learned so much - more about himself than he even realizes!!!  I am not sure these two kids realize exactly how proud we are of them - but we are! 

We still have Ray and Olivia in our lives - while I have not given birth to these kids they are very much our family.  I would never consider doing anything without including them, they bring joy, smiles and laughter to our family.  It's funny, we were thinking of a mother's ring the other day and Tim said well, how many kids are you including?  If it's all of them, that ring is going to get awfully big!!  LOL!  But it's true!  I love my own children as well as the children we have gathered along the way - I would name them all but inevitably would be in trouble if I missed someone! 

We had our 25th Anniversary in May.  We went to dinner at Herford House at Terradyne, that is a nice place to go.  Very quiet and loved the atmosphere.  The next 25 years will be so interesting!  I don't want to rush it, but look foward to knowing someday how it turns out!

Have a safe and Happy 4th of July to everyone!!!!
