Thanks in Advance for your prayers. I will be having Surgery later this month unless they put it off to remove scar tissue from my gut I acquired during times best forgotten. This will allow me to digest solid foods like normal bears. I am so excited.

I asked the surgeon if I would be able to play the piano after the surgery and she said, "Well Of Course!!" This has me so excited because I never could before!!

PSS. Please Pray For the Wonderful People of Great Britain. My Heart Hurts SOOOOO Bad.

Hey Chris,

In the Theme Functions file, when you type in the slider ID (44), would that not become overwritten the next time you update the site's theme? In other words, would it not be better to create a child theme for that file to exist in?

Well, of course, you are right. The coding would have been wiped out with the next update. Wat to be there beautiful.

I did not think of it because it is not real but people who are following me are really depending on it. Thanks for having my back. I'll add this to the text above.

I am so happy that you think so because sometimes I'm worried that I am being misunderstood. If it is any way possible please pray about accompanying Steve when he comes State Side because he is coming in a few months and I'd love to see your face. I'll spoil you both.
