As stupid as it may sound, the Lord has really protected us from a lot of the things that could have been... One more little request, though: we think a mommy cockroach hatched because there are a bunch of little ones that appear every few days in the kitchen...and the team from FBC is coming soon (and will be living here and eating here)! And, oh man...I do so hate barracas (cockroaches in portuguese). Oh, and CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU WHEN I GET HOME!!! I miss our girl chats and our laughs...Give my love to the kiddos.

Please know that me and the kids have held you up in prayer this summer regarding the creepy crawly things as well as the flying things, the swimming things, and anything else that is alive and yucky. We will continue to pray for protection! Love ya, Kristin Brooke,

Here's some cool info: Ringworm is a contagious fungus infection that can affect the scalp, the body, the feet (athlete's foot), or the nails. People can get Ringworm from: 1) direct skin-to-skin contact with an infected person or pet, 2) indirect contact with an object or surface that an infected person or pet has touched, or 3) rarely, by contact with soil. Ringworm can be treated with fungus-killing medicine. To prevent Ringworm, 1) make sure all infected persons and pets get appropriate treatment, 2) avoid contact with infected persons and pets, 3) do not share personal items, and 4) keep common-use areas clean. What is Ringworm? Ringworm is a contagious fungus infection that can affect the scalp, the body (particularly the groin), the feet, and the nails. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with worms. The name comes from the characteristic red ring that can appear on an infected person's skin. Ringworm is also called Tinea. What is the infectious agent that causes Ringworm? Ringworm is caused by several different fungus organisms that all belong to a group called "Dermatophytes." Different Dermatophytes affect different parts of the body and cause the various types of Ringworm: Ringworm of the scalp Ringworm of the body Ringworm of the foot (athlete's foot) Ringworm of the nails We are sitting in the Portland airport, maryn & me, and we've hooked up with Susa who is on the same flight down to Ontario. I'm glad you had an incredible experience seeing animals - isn't God creative?! We love you and will be praying for renewed health for you... ...dad Brooke - from dad:
