Humpty Dumpty

Greg is falling apart, but unlike Humpty Dumpty, he has a gracious God, awesome parents, and a wife completely dedicated to taking care of him (its not arrogant if its true...right?..I really do take care of him). Anyway, the sleep apnea test came back showing that he has a moderate case of sleep apnea (they have a little scale with 0-14 being mild or none, 15-30 being moderate, and 30+ being severe, he fell in the 15-25 category). However, we also found out from the throat doctor that he has esophageal spasms, which affect his swallowing, and we are wondering if this might also be affecting his breathing, causing the positive sleep apnea test. We are thankful after trying to figure this out for a couple years to finally know that there is something wrong with him, and it is treatable. Hopefully after all this he won't be so tired all the time, and his immune system will get the boost it needs from better nights of sleep and better ability to digest food. I mean, two of his most basic survival functions (sleeping and eating) are being hindered...no wonder he hasn't felt well! Anyway, today he just texted me to say that on top of this, one of his fillings fell out. I guess this is an easier fix, but it really does make him seem like he's falling apart. So pray for us as we head to the dentist on Monday afternoon, and then to his gastrointestinal specialist directly after. Sigh.

In other news, tomorrow we will be celebrating the marriage of our friends Naomi Barjuca and Caleb Amesbury. We are blessed to be providing some of the music for this celebration! We are blessed to go to a lot of weddings between being wedding musicians as well as having plenty of friends getting married. These joyous occasions are always great reminders of the blessing of our own marriage and God's plan for His people.

I had some exciting opportunities for my little jewelry business in the past month. First of all, I got to team up with a group of South Florida wedding vendors and create 5 inspirational wedding shoots to give Florida brides ideas about their weddings, as well as showcase our work. My jewelry was featured in these shoots done by Jenny Schartner of Captured Photography and Videography (she was my wedding photographer...she is awesome!! Check out her site: www.youreventscaptured.com ). The shoots have since been published on a popular wedding blog Wedding Chicks as well as in a local magazine: The Wellington Magazine. This was all pretty exciting. You can also check out all 5 of the shoots on Jenny's Photography Blog . She is such an awesome photographer!! Also...tell people looking for jewelry for weddings, events, or just everyday wear that I do lots of custom work (I just did the jewelry for my friend Naomi's 9 bridesmaids!! Can't wait to see them wear it tomorrow!!).

Anyway, most importantly...PRAY for GREG...also...tell your friends about my online shop, and also...have a blessed day!!
