Wed Day +81

Hello Prayer Warriors,

We appreciate your prayers. Erin had a good day for the most part yesterday. We are so thankful for tidbits of fun when we see Erin's dimples and hear her laugh. She really has been amazing throughout this ordeal. She has never felt sorry for herself or mad at God or the world. She just does what she has to do and looks forward to being normal again. That's not to say she hasn't missed being able to jump up and do the things everyone else is able to do, but she just doesn't let anyone around her know it. She maintains an upbeat spirit and keeps us all up with her. And that, my friends, is a gift of the Spirit! It's called peace and she has always had it in abundance. As a matter of fact, being the middle child, she is the peace-maker in the family. I thank God every day for the gifts He has given the girls, because they are a gift to us as well. Peace, janet

P.S. Welcome Baby Wyatt!

"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again; Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:4-7
