Into April

Our "quick hop" over to the new mission board has proven slower than anticipated. While we had hoped to be settling into our new home this week, we remain here in Florida waiting on visas...and for our necessary support to be transferred over (hint, hint).

But get this: we had planned on flying out last week, but on Thursday Braelyn came down with her FIFTH raging double ear infection! Thank you Lord we weren't somewhere over the Atlantic! The elderly Jewish doc said, amidst smothering her with kisses and exclamations over her sweetness (where is he at bedtime?) she definitely needed tubes.

So this morning I woke her sleeping self up at 5:45, stuck her in a bath with antibacterial soap (that went as well as you think) and headed off to my old stomping grounds, the Children's Hospital. The 5 minute procedure takes a ton of waiting (so much for that antibacterial bath when she played on the floor for 2 hours) and quite a doozy of a wake up, but she made it through just fine.

She's just woken up from a nap in the swing outside and is snuggling her daddy now. Funny swing moment, she's sound asleep, a P-3 plane has just thundered over head and she doesn't twitch. A yippy dog 2 houses away barks quite softly, and her head pops up. She says, "woo-woo", her eyes roll around and she goes back to sleep. That's my girl.

This whole week I have found myself thanking God for good, clean healthcare and for His perfect timing. Please join with me in praising and thanking Him for these things.

Please also join with me in praying for our visa and passport return THIS WEEK and for our support to be back up to 100% by then (hint, hint). Thank you all! Let's get this gospel taken to the outermost parts!!!!
