Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...

We seriously prayed for snow because we knew how much it would mean to the kids, so it felt like a sweet hug from God to see those beautiful snowflakes begin to fall! 

All they talked about was wanting it to snow so that they could make a snowman...

Make snow angels...

How stoked does Abby look?

Grace had another ROUGH night and start to the day today as she continues to endure these nasty withdrawls. We were debating whether to take her in for a clinic visit today or early tomorrow morning just to make sure that her fussiness and vomiting were only withdrawl related and to make sure she's not getting dehydrated from the vomiting; however, the clinic was closed so we would have had to take her to the ER. David and I planned to pray about it and watch Grace closely for a clear sign as to what we should do. God gave us the reassurance and peace that we were looking for because Grace was her joyful self, without fussing or vomiting the rest of the day and we were able to identify a pattern of how she responds at various times and days to her wean schedule. Village, will you please pray that she sleeps well tonight and that she will be fuss free and vomit free all day tomorrow because (Lord willing) the plan is to return home to Texas tomorrow, AS A FAMILY OF 5!!!  Grace has a clinic appointment on Monday with her cardiologist in Texas, so will you please pray that Grace doesn't pull any funny business between now and then and that at her appointment on Monday, her cardiologist would be blown away by how amazing her heart looks and sounds and that God would get all the glory?  I can't even wrap my mind around everything that we need to do to get our lives back in order in Texas (after being in survival mode for the past 3 months), but none of that matters as long as we are all under the same roof at HOME! Thank you for your faithful prayers, sweet Village! We love you!

GRACIE STRONG (in God's strength)!
