Seth update - doing much better!

Thankfully, Carrie acted quickly to get Seth on Oxygen the night before last.  Yesterday and today, you wouldn't know that he's sick as energetic and crazy he's been acting.  Today, he was already off oxygen most of the day and he's sleeping soundly now off O2.

Thank you all for your prayers on his behalf and thank you Lord for healing him so quickly!

And another amazing waterfall. This one near Yawan airstrip in Morobe Province. This country is incredibly full of beauty and I have the pleasure of seeing so much of it from the air and close up. God's creation is awe inspiring!

Back on oxygen again!

Seth had a mild cold yesterday, then last night I heard him coughing in a weird way so went to give him inhalers. He was breathing a bit fast and grunting with effort, and his oxygenation didn't come up above 85% even after all his treatments. So here we are. He acts completely normal otherwise!

Thanks for praying!!

Receiving his nebulizer treatment after midnight; our poor clinic staff!

He is so proud of his finger probe, that it's HIS and "not Will Or David's":

I got to see this incredible set of waterfalls coming out of caves in the mountains in an incredibly unreachable area of East New Britain. I'm guessing only a handful of humans have ever seen this spot, it being so remote and isolated in a deep canyon. It is featured in a BBC Documentary.

Please pray for the Smith family. I just dropped them off in Katiati for their first stay. They will be doing a Bible translation with Pioneer Bible Translators. It is a huge transition for them, especially with a toddler and newborn, so I know they would appreciate your prayers.

Sometimes things get pretty amusing in the middle of the Papua New Guinea jungle. I landed here this morning in the Finisterre mountain range where Finisterre Vision mission is hoping to send some missionaries. I looked over at the Heli after a bit and this guy who had baby powdered his whole body and decorated himself with flowers was sitting on the helicopter skid. When I went to take a picture of him, a kid walks up wearing a construction hard hat and safety vest. PNG, definitely the land of the unexpected!

First set of quintuplet school pictures!

Lord willing, there will be 15 years of these (two years of preschool included). Thanks to Janeen for taking them, and to Debbie for organizing it! She sent out a reminder that it was photo day, but I still forgot and failed to coordinate/match the kids or do any hairstyling. Oh well, they're still cute!

Puppy pictures with the Weavers, Rose and Jasmine

Several weeks late, but still cute!
