Each Day A Gift
A few Sunday's ago we were blessed with having one of our pastors, Bob Kauflin pray for our family. And part of his prayer and admonition to us was that we might see each day as a gift. And even today in spite of the results of Micah's MRI there have been many gifts... play time with Maw & Paw, Nana coming home, songs, dance, tub time, story time,wrestling with Cam and Brandon, snuggling, Micah helping feed his sister, the boys running around the circle in our home (through the dining room, kitchen and then back to the living room)~ and maybe that's why the news is even harder--- what a wonderful, little family we enjoy! The MRI report states "significant change," little mans tumor continues to grow, it is now about 2x5x3 cm.
With this news the tears began again, I wept as Micah and I sang "Oh the Blood of Jesus" during bath time tonight. Little man has no clue how much his songs help his mommy & daddy's heart. It's hard to know what to say or feel at times. Our hearts our tremendously sad. Yet God is near, comforting, keeping us. We're standing on your prayers, the Lord is holding us lest we would faint for lack of strength.
Micah's on the other hand is a care free, bundle of joy! The only thing that stops him is a break for chocolate milk, nuggets and a poopie diaper (that Mommy insists on changing). My heart wants desperately to know more of his child-like faith.
Thanks, as always for your prayers, your emails and calls of encouragement. We so appreciate it! Please pray that we could see each day as a gift, our hearts would be at peace and that Micah would continue to have good health. Thanks friends!

*No news on the trial, we are were told it should open "within the next week or so".
