Getting Better Everyday






First of all, we would like to thank you all for praying for Austin and our family over this past week. It has definately been a trying time and there is nothing worse than watching your son be sick and not be able to do anything about it. The events over the last week really puts life into perspective and you realize that common everyday problems are not a big deal. On the other hand, it is amazing to see the power of God during our weaknesses and to see just how small and meek we are. It is very comforting to know that God is bigger than we are and larger than any of our problems and to know that everything is in his hands. Sometimes we forget just how many people love and care for you and are willing to pray for your needs and it is a humbling experience.

Austin has been doing much better this week. He has formed back into himself. Medically, his blood levels are back up into a normal range and he is making his own blood! Physically, his appetite has been amazing, eating everything in his path. He is back to being happy and laughing a lot. We did not realize how bad he looked until looking at recent pictures and seeing him so pale and sick looking. He will continue to go back to the doctor and have periodic blood tests to make sure that he is progressing like he should be. Again, thank you all for praying for him and keeping him in your thoughts and prayers.

We will continue to have updates on baby EVA arriving soon!

My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9
