I was on, um, vacation

First off, thank you all for your wonderful e-mails and inquiries into where I’ve been. It meant a lot to know so many folks are interested in the Ozark blog.
I had to go on “vacation,“ or emergency maternity leave for a while - the new little guy wanted to bless us with his presence at 20 weeks, which was too early for him to survive.
So, with emergency maternity leave came emergency bed rest so he could mature more. But now, I’m back on board for at least the next couple weeks and then headed back into the hospital until I deliver. I pray I make it to at least 30 weeks, and that little guy is healthy and able to come home.
Anyway, I will be posting each day blurbs of stories and any jail and crime reports I get and will hopefully have time to post the day I’m headed back out for a while.
Also, continue to check our main Web site for any Ozark and Dale County news.
Thank you all and take care.
