Links of interest and a question
A reader sent me the link to this blog with this note:
Serena emailed me:
The basic synopsis from what I understand, is that the wife, Tricia, who has cystic fibrosis, was preparing to hopefully have a double lung transplant when she discovered she was pregnant with their first baby. Because of complications related to the pregnancy affecting her lungs/breathing, her Drs. ended up taking the baby via c-section at 24 weeks, 5 days.I checked out blog and could hardly pull myself away. You can't help but be touched by this dad's blog and his love and commitment to his wife and daughter.
Tricia was placed on a vent at the same time and has not been fully awake since giving birth (they are keeping her sedated). I have really been blessed by reading their story--they are Christians and a beautiful testimony of faith and confidence in God's plan for them. The blog is written from the husband/dad's perspective, as he divides time between his wife and baby girl in the hospital.

I'm hosting a Recycled Fabric Swap in February and though it might be of some value to your blog readers. I start the swap package and it is mailed through a list of people, everyone taking fabric out and putting fabric in. It's a fun way to exchange fabric with only having the cost of flat rate postage. Details are here.My friend Rebecca wrote and asked:
I was wondering if you know what happened to the Women at Home University website. Some friends and I started a book club about a year ago and we were using the lists on that websites for book ideas. About a month ago I went to look for more ideas and couldn't the site. I am really wishing I had printed all the lists out and not just two of them.Anyone know or does anyone have a list of all the books recommended? If so, leave a comment or email me.

Regarding Rebecca's question I was wondering what happened to the wife? She had a brain tumor. Then some of thier kids had some serious health issues. I use their Praying the Entire Bible for Your Family book and I'm curious what happened to that family. I couldn't find anything online.
We've been reading Nathan's blog for several weeks - isn't it awesome?!?!?!?
Using the Internet Archive's Way Bay Machine I got to this page with the links to the Four Year Plan:

Rebecca's question: Last I had heard (a few months ago), the family's health situations had not changed much. As far as the web site: They have had a change in position on several issues and have relocated their family to participate in a different ministry. I believe that is why the site disappeared. I'm glad someone found it in the archives. It had so many good things listed.
Thank you!
Thanks for the info, K (comment #3)! I didn't even know that service existed! I've saved the lists to a document on my hard drive.
