I love the story I am going to share this Memorial Box Monday. Although it goes all the way back to 1975, it serves as a powerful reminder of what God can and will do – just because He loves us so!! As I’ve mentioned briefly before, my dad was very abusive. He, in fact,…

Ruby was the most like herself that she has been since she entered the hospital 2.5 weeks ago. She was cooing and smiling…. and then right out of the blue Ruby asked if we could take some fun pictures and post them on her Sp*cial Ops hero big brother’s Facebook wall {she’s heard so much about him…

Ruby had a really good night for a baby who just had brain surgery and is in the PICU hooked to all kinds of machines and monitors and things that beep and alarm. No doubt ministering angels have been tending to our little Miss Ruby Grace. I slept for bits and pieces sitting…

The surgeon said, “It couldn’t have gone better.” We are so thankful for the Lord guiding his hands. PICU will be Ruby’s home for quite awhile now. The second we were allowed in, I went to her side and put my finger to her hand. Ruby clasped my finger in record time and gripped tighter…

Dumbfounded and sobered. The only two words I could think to put how we felt after talking to the doctor. I know, I know: How can we be dumbfounded when we are children of the Most High God? How can we be dumbfounded when we saw Almighty God provide every, single step of the way…

Jubilee has been in surgery now for about two hours. Seems like time is standing still. Thankful for all the prayers. Emma came with us. The other 7 kids all are at Abi and Ryan’s. I had told Jubilee over and over what was going to happen. She was very peaceful, no doubt the Lord’s…

I knew you guys would pray!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! And, literally, immediately the mountains started to move last night after posting!

Rejoice with us! Guess what Karl did? He read SEVEN Bible verses that were posted on his wall!! Oh, yes, he did!! Isn’t that awesome? We are over the moon! He is communicating more and remembering more on an almost daily basis. The road from a Traumatic Brain Injury {TBI} is long. Please do not…

Sunday for Karl…..

All the prayers are working!! Karl continues to improve. Healing from a TBI is slow; an up and down kind of roller coaster…. so some days are definitely better than others. Karl was very glad to see Autumn when she flew up Saturday night. He told her several times that he was…
