Merry Christmas 
from the Leggetts!
Dear friends and family,
We wish each of you joy during this Christmas season and hope that there are many blessings you can recall as you look back on this past year. For us the year has had some important events and many quieter moments.
David remains in bed, though making some small steps forward. He now has a physician and alternative health practitioner who will be able to try to treat him for his illnesses at home. This is a huge step forward and certainly an answer to many people’s prayers. One highlight for David this year was when we managed to find a window of opportunity to bring his grandmother, who is over 100, to visit for a couple of days. David hadn’t been able to see her in 4 years. She had been saving up her energy and surprised us all with how plucky she was when she was here. 
Erin made the transition from elementary school to high school this year. She had an opportunity to go to Ottawa with her middle school band in the spring for a national band competition. Now she has followed her sister to high school and continues to play flute in the junior band. She is also enjoying dance and drama there, along with the regular subjects. In her spare time she spends a lot of time with her pet mice. Erin loves animals.
Catherine spent half of the summer as a camp counselor. She enjoys working with young children. She is in grade 12 this year but will be staying in high school for another year as she has been heavily involved in arts courses – dance and band. She has the privilege of being involved in the school dance company this year as well, which involves lots of extra time, but also many opportunities.
Kristine’s parents had their 50th wedding anniversary in June and it was a treat to be able to get there and help them celebrate. She continues to enjoy her job as a Nursing Practice Leader at the nearby hospital. There are always new challenges and the privilege of helping to stir passion for patient centred care in staff.
All the best in the new year.
With love from David, Kristine, Catherine & Erin
Good to hear the good news about your doctor and alternative health practitioner David! We continue to pray for strength and healing one day at a time. Your girls seems to be doing great. We miss being close enough to visit you…maybe this summer? Bonnie is taking 7 weeks off work so she hopes to go visit Doug & family in the area. Thanks for keeping in touch all these years. God Bless.
@ Chris & Bonnie Coram:Thanks for your prayers. We would be pleased to see you if you are ever in our neck of the woods!
