When God's People Pray

A precious little girl, Chrissie, has been lying in a hospital bed for the past 11 days where she is fighting for life. Doctors considered her heart defect to be 'incompatible with life.' People all over the world have been praying for healing for Chrissie and God has performed MIRACLE after MIRACLE after MIRACLE in sweet Chrissie. Please go check out her mom Lorraine's blog!!!

We had our very own miracle when Linden's heart was miraculously healed last July with no need for surgery. We are still praising God for that!! Our baby is a MIRACLE and every day with her is more precious than the day before.

This song was on Lorraine's blog and I clicked on to watch the You tube video. Wow is all I can say. Things do change when people pray.

When God's People pray by Crystal Lewis:

Deep in the dark of despair
Deep in my heart there's a prayer
That faith will reign over fear
That courage and strength will be mine

My heart is heavy I don't understand
Yet I know my life is in your hands

I realize that I am incapable
Of changing alone the impossible
But I believe in miracles
Together our voices will rise

We are not powerless in the face of fear
As one we will stand and make our voices clear

When God's people pray things will change
When God's people pray all the earth will obey
My faith can't be shaken because I have seen
The amazing, miraculous happens
When God's people pray

Our defense in danger
Our light in the midst of life
Our strength in the weakest moment
Our hope through the night, the night
All things are possible when we let go
Let go of what we can't control

When God's people pray things will change
When God's people pray all the earth will obey
My faith can't be shaken because I have seen
The amazing, miraculous happens
When God's people pray
The peace that we need will only come when we get on our knees


When God's people pray you know things will change
When God's people pray all the earth will obey
My faith can't be shaken because I have seen
The amazing, miraculous happens
When God's people pray

Ridin' in the "Stain"

These pictures are so cute. Aislinn has a pink Mustang Power Wheels that she calls her "Stain" ('Stang). She drives that thing all over the yard until the battery dies. She puts her seatbelt on and makes sure that her passenger does as well.

Then, they found some caterpillars...

Have you ever seen anything cuter?

Linden has had some trouble for a few weeks now using her sippy cup so I tried the bottle. She hasn't had a bottle since she's been 5 weeks old so I wasn't sure how she would do. She did great! Sucked the whole bottle of Pediasure down! After about a week of sucking on the bottle, she can use the sippy cup. Yay! Here are two pictures of her last night watching Baby Einstein and having a bottle. I give her the bottle a little more often because it's easier to hold as she has no fingers on her left hand.

19 months old!

We went to a crawfish boil today at my cousin Jada's house. Linden had so much fun. The kids dyed eggs and later pocked them. Linden and Joe pocked and she won!!

She also got to play on the inflatable Fun Jump for the first time. She loved it.
(Look at those eyes!)
