It's been a long (& stressful) week, and it feels soo good to be back! We arrived home late last night, from staying out at our friend's farm for the past four days. We had fun: milking
the cow -- caring for the horses -- helping to train the guide dog pup
("Liberty") -- fiddling around on the violin and piano w/ Lynn --
serching the dark fields, at 11o'clock at night, trying to find a
missing [black colored], 8 week old bull-calf -- (and getting blisters
on my feet for neglecting to wear socks with my muck-boots) -- ironing
interfacing and ripping out seams for the girls who were trying to sew
themselves some pioneer dresses -- Riding the 4-wheeler up to the
feedstore to get feed & hay -- going swimming -- going into town to
run errands, and people thinking all 13 of us were brothers and sisters
-- etc... but we were definately ready to come home -- and see our mom and "new & improved" sister, whom we missed a TON! 
After
4½ hrs of major jaw surgery, and three days in the hospital, Christina
is doing well (and very happy to be home)! I can't get over how much
different she looks! -- Despite the swelling and pain, she looks
absoulutely beautiful! --- And the funniest thing is, the doctor was
right... He said she'd look just like momma... and she DOES! 
It's really neat!
It's really neat!
Christina, you have been such a tropper through all this, and your calm
& peaceful spirit has definately been an inspirtation to
me! You're are very special to me, Deiter, and I love you dearly!!
