Since Princess Ruby rode her royal chariot home
she has been sleeping.
Did you know it’s actually rumored that Ruby’s chariot
often doubles at odd hours as a big ol’ 12 passenger van
that has food particles ground into the carpet,
zillions of fingerprints on the windows,
and smells kind of funky?
Who knew?
It’s actually so preposterous that I’m not sure I believe it.
Ruby did ask me to thank
all of her friends around the world
for their love, support and prayers.
Her surgeon, Dr. Heimann was a huge blessing with his medical expertise
and kindhearted way. Dr. H. hung around for a quite a while after,
spending time just visiting with us.
We are so very grateful for his sweet care of our precious Ruby-girl.
Ruby had about 3 or 4 tiny seizures as she was recovering.
Yes, those seizures freaked me out.
Seizures are to be respected and the grand mals
she’s had in the past are certainly serious.
Each medical professional who cared in any way for Ruby today
was shown her first-ever picture in the hopes of not only helping
them understand what a miracle she is but imploring them to treat her
with generous amounts of tenderness.
Thank you for all your prayers.
God has, once again, been very faithful.
Ruby is definitely wanting to suck her cherished
recently-found-finger and almost, sorta’ kinda’ able,
but no doubt, it tastes not-quite-so-yummy as it did about 12 hours ago.
Please, if Ruby comes to mind, pray for her continued healing
and a freedom from any more seizures.
Ruby would thank each of you if she could.
Ruby did mention that she wants me to tell you
she loves you all very much.
But on a side note, Ruby was overheard mumbling
something about whoever had the idea of
not allowing her to eat this morning is still very much
on her ‘very, very naughty’ list.
Too bad for you – no present from Ruby this Christmas.
Thank you so much for the update. I was wondering all day how she did. God is so good. I will be praying for her continued good recovery and no more seizures for sure. Sweet, Sweet Ruby. I think of her often. My daughter (13) is allowed to follow your blog so we talk about Ruby often. Your sweet blessing and Gods big miracle girl.
Tell your daughter – thank you so much for caring about our Ruby. I bet your girl and my girl {Liberty} would have some fun together! xo
Prayers being said for Ruby.

Thank you Lori.
Rejoicing with you in His care and provision! Continued prayers…
She smiled last night for Graham. We all cheered. We needed that smile! She smiled more for others…but Graham got the first one.
Continued prayers for precious Ruby and all of you. Love and hugs too!
Thank you so much lizzielou.
So glad that the surgery went through! Ruby is definitely in my prayers.
Thank you Sunshine. The surgery was a success! We are so grateful.
so glad to hear that Miss Ruby is feeling better. And, whoever withheld the food…..they're on my NO GIFTS list too, Ruby! Get well soon Little Princess!
Your comment made me laugh. Ruby appreciates the solidarity on this issue. xo
yes I will continue praying, Jesus died for sweet Ruby, His promise is just as true for her cute self as all those He healed back when He walked this earth. Oh how He must melt at the thought of Ruby. Many blessings….. "He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength" Isaiah 40:29
Love that verse from Isaiah. Thank you for reminding me of it and thank you for the prayers for Ruby.
12:30 am in HP, NC…Just read about Ruby's surgery and the seizures…Saw the pictures and definitely will pray for her to heal fast and continue healing…What a girlie she is…God is so Faithful and sweet Ruby is a a living testimony of God's great Love…What a privilege to be able to pray for her. Praying that all the medical people who have cared for her who don't know JESUS, will turn their hearts to HIM and know HIM….
Love from NC
Thank you Sandy for all the prayers. She's a LOVE with all capitals. We are so blessed.
I love you too Miss Ruby. Feel better real quick!
Thank you Stacey. And I will get back to you asap.
I prayed and will continue to do so. Even in the midst of aching-Mama-heart-for-her-precious-child, you're making jokes. You are a woman of godly perseverance, conviction and love. I love and miss you, Linny.
I love and miss you too. January for a month? Every now and then I stop and count, "How many more months till January?" xo
Prayers that God will grant her healing! Hugs for the mama too!
Thank you so much.
Praying for your sweet girl, Linny.
We appreciate the prayers Rachel. How's things over there on that prayer request? xo
Thanks for the update. aw, little Ruby and another surgical procedure. Hopefully she will keep improving over time and just be more sweet than ever. I love her little chubby arms. What a difference from her very first picture you showed us. She's come so far just cuz you love her so much! Hugs and thanks and tell Ruby to keep on going!
Praying for your princess!!!! Was awake quite a bit last night, and prayed then too. 🙂
So, so happy to hear she is doing well. Prayers for continued healing.
So glad she is home and smiling. We will continue our prayers for her. Hope she doesn't lose too much weight then they will be yapping that she is too thin. Haha. Seriously she is just right in every way fearfully and wonderfully made. And I keep having a vision of her eating and talking. Go God!
I so much enjoy seeing her surrounded with love and all plumped up! Good job, Mama!
Couldn't get on till this morning and am so happy to see your update! Yes, continuing to pray for her!
Oh, and prayers for NO MORE SEIZURES!!
