"Surely my soul remembers and is bowed down within me. This I recall to my mind, therefore I have hope. The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning, Great is Your faithfulness." Lamentations 3:20-23
The LORD has truly been compassionately faithful to us this past year. We look forward to another year where His compassions are once again new every morning.
We all had a good Christmas as we hope all of you did. Sarah and Kevin enjoyed their Christmas visit with Sarah's family in Northern California. Everett and I enjoyed a quiet Christmas together spending the day visiting an old friend and then going to the movies. Everett had a good time this past weekend with Kevin in Bakersfield. Sarah will be spending the upcoming weekend in Bakersfield with him. Then the weekend of January 11, Sarah, Everett and I will all be going up for our next family conference. We are expecting at that time that they will be able to give us a release date for Kevin so that we can soon bring him home for good.
Kevin is enjoying more independence at the apartments. He has ventured out several times walking about a mile each way to a couple of different shopping and fast food areas.
We are still waiting to hear from the neuro-ophthalmologist at Standford Medical Center as to whether he will see Kevin or not. If this doesn't work out, we are investigating another couple of options, one at UCI and one in San Diego. Please pray that the right doctor will agree to see Kevin.
Once again on behalf of the whole Hollar family, I want to let you know how much we appreciate each one of you. We are still amazed at how many people have faithfully continued to keep us in their prayers these past many months. We know there are hundreds of you out there whom we don't even know your names. But God knows who you are and I have thanked Him for each one of you and asked that He would bless you in special ways for the kindness you have bestowed on our family.
May God's abundant blessings be yours this New Year,
Tami

Happy New Year, Hollar family! We continue to pray that things will work out with an opthamologist. May this new year bring many blessings as you continue to watch God working through Kevin and his struggles.
Much love,
The Gulley's
