This is yet another busy week for us. Jerome heads in to surgery again, not as extensively, but still rough. Alexander has his birthday this week, and the diocese for our Anglican parish is holding its synod this week.

We will be back to a no chew diet for Jerome, which is hard, but we hope this will be the end of the surgeries. Since he and Rich won't be here for dinner tomorrow night, I am making something that Jerome can't eat and something that Rich won't like, but the rest of us will like. The meals for the rest of the week are all either suitable for Jerome's diet or adaptable to it.

Again, we welcome your prayers, and hope you have a wonderful week.
