How blessed we are..............



On our computer at home we have a picture of Reese from when she was in the NICU. It was the first few days of her life and now we are reminded of it on the screen saver. As I look at that picture of her connected to the IV, heart monitor, pulse ox machine, and tube in her nose (and her "goggles" on), I am reminded how blessed we are! She now weighs 6 lbs 14 oz at 10 weeks old ~ a huge difference from the 3 lbs 1 oz at her birth! For her to have done so well is just a blessing from the Lord. I look at her daily and it makes my heart so happy to have her here with us! At the same time, my heart breaks for a couple we know who just lost their baby after only a week! Our prayer is for them to be comforted and showered with love and support over the next few months and to know the comfort that only Jesus can provide. Only He can give them what they need. Please pray for His grace in their lives. It's a true miracle to have a healthy baby and I just praise the Lord for ours! Our little Reese is such a miracle! Praise the Lord for His goodness. May you all know His love and grace and experience Him in His fullness.
