It was very hard to not be able to make it down for the services, but I know that Grandpa would have understood and would have wanted me to do what was best for Miss Evie. You were all covered in a lot of prayer since that was all I could do (and really, it was the best I could do). <br /><br />We had a lovely time at the wedding! It was so nice to see your parents again. It's been far too long. They seemed to enjoy holding Evie. Mom has some fabulous photos up on facebook (with your mom and dad), so you'll have to go look. ((hugs))<br /><br />I look forward to getting some tips on gluten-free. I'm praying fairly hard that this is just for 3 months, but I know He'll give me the strength to do this as long as need be. I'm joining Xander in his diet as it just doesn't seem fair otherwise.sharalynshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614177252377725175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606636362527450399.post-47057614344651201602011-09-03T14:48:54.594-07:002011-09-03T14:48:54.594-07:00I was going to ask you for your email so I can sho...I was going to ask you for your email so I can shoot you some of the info I've gathered on my gluten-free diet. I will pull something together to email you in the next few days.<br /><br />We missed you at Grandpa's service, but know you were thinking of and praying for everyone down south. I 'won't be able to make it up to Evan's wedding, but I am looking forward to getting an account from my mom! I think you are there right now. I hope it's terrific. :)Sarah Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273155330519140591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606636362527450399.post-32670215387701600802011-09-01T12:03:02.023-07:002011-09-01T12:03:02.023-07:00Yes, very full and well worth it. :-) Full of bles...Yes, very full and well worth it. :-) Full of blessing each day.<br /><br />I was disappointed that Evie has been such a terrible traveler, and we missed Grandpa's services. Are you going to Evan's wedding this weekend? I'm looking forward to Kyle's and Aaron's too. :-)<br /><br />I should get your email address so I can contact you directly. :-) Mine is sharalyn at gryphonshafer dot com.sharalynshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614177252377725175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606636362527450399.post-89221541177087328112011-08-28T11:14:42.630-07:002011-08-28T11:14:42.630-07:00Oh my, your days are full and rich!

I can't wait to meet little Evie. :) Thanks so much for an update, and for your prayers!Sarah Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273155330519140591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606636362527450399.post-90700527032067469632011-08-24T10:47:10.276-07:002011-08-24T10:47:10.276-07:00Oh, I'm glad that the less caffeine is working...Oh, I'm glad that the less caffeine is working! It's hard to give up a good cup of tea. :-)<br /><br />I hope one of the recipes works out for you. I can't imagine completely giving up apple pie. I would be so sad.<br /><br />Evie is doing very well. 4 months today! Ack! She's starting to tolerate traveling in the car a bit better, so that is a relief. The screaming was not so fabulous.<br /><br />Alexander is getting ready to start 5th grade this fall (we're homeschooling again this year). He'll be busy with Bible Study Fellowship, Boy Scouts, karate, and swimming. :-)<br /><br />Praying you are feeling better and have the strength you need for the start of the school year!<br /><br />Love you too!sharalynshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614177252377725175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606636362527450399.post-53661365966546621892011-08-19T11:30:58.117-07:002011-08-19T11:30:58.117-07:00Yes!

So far caffeine-free has so little caffeine that I'm sleeping soundly. Although it sure doesn't taste all that great.<br /><br />And thank you for the apple pie recipes! I cannot wait to try them. <br /><br />Hope you and baby Evangeline (and the boys, of course!) are all doing wonderful. <br /><br />Love you. :)Sarah Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273155330519140591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606636362527450399.post-12543985824951925992011-08-19T09:16:56.104-07:002011-08-19T09:16:56.104-07:00I love the flowers and the art work! Gorgeous! Yes...I love the flowers and the art work! Gorgeous! Yes, I think Petunias got the short end of the stick as far as names go. I think partially because it feels similar to "spittoon" when you say it out loud.<br /><br />While decaf black tea has less caffeine, just know that it still has caffeine in it (we can't give it or decaf coffee to our heart patients as it still has too much). Also green tea has caffeine in it too.<br /><br />Here are some recipes for gluten free apple pies:<br />http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/recipes/853<br />http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/desserts/a/PieCrusts.htm<br />gluten and sugar free:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqC3tZOYyfI<br />http://www.thedailydietribe.com/2010/02/elimination-diet-phase-two-recipe-apple.html<br />http://www.cooks.com/rec/search/0,1-0,sugar-free_apple_pie_filling,FF.html<br />Hope that helps some!<br /><br />Loves to you!sharalynshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614177252377725175noreply@blogger.com
