Sarah will have her MRI this Friday at 8:30....
thought i know she has been healed, (if your a mom you will understand why I'm asking for prayer).
it's hard to watch your 4 year old daughter being prepped for an MRI. The fighting the nurses just because she doesn't understand why they want to give he a needle to star the IV. the fighting and then moments later the little daughter who is sleeping! it's tough.
This time we will meet with the Neurologost who performed Sarah's surgery the morning of November 28th. He will read the results( about 2 hours) after her MRI, As i said i know she is cancer free and we rejoice in that. but I'm still human!
I'm not saying I'm doubting that she has been healed. i know it and she does too! i have to go to the hospital alone and Sarah knows what happens and she lets EVERYONE know she is not happy =0) she 's a big girl and i struggle with her.
Please pray that the nurses will not have problems finding her veins, that Sarah stays healthy ALL this week, for physical strength for me as i take her.
i will post good news on that day! thank you to all who have followed us through this fight and path that we walk!
many blessings!

she continues to do great!
hi everyone!
just wanted to post some up to date pictures!
So with Easter right around the corner we are getting ready for our neighborhood egg hunt! though we don't celebrate the easter bunny our kids do get to participate in egg hunts and do receive candy, but we try to limit it and they only get candy that has to do with the REAL meaning of Easter! so with that said,here are a few of Sarah and her sister filling some eggs with candy.
for our egg hunt...this year the kids and parents will receive a Resurrection cookie devotion to do as a family Saturday night...check it out here...
as you celebrate "Easter" remember to stay focused on the REAL meaning..
A Savior who loves YOU, who died for YOU who arose from the Dead for YOU
he loves YOU and is waiting for YOU to confess your sins, Admit you are a sinner in need of a Savior believe in him today and you will be given the GIFT of ETERNAL life!
Jesus paid the price so we wouldn't have to!

questions
in no order!
we had some "spring" like temps today so we headed outside with snow pants and sweatshirts!
we have our own little hill right in our own back yard that the kids LOVE it works well for us...during the summer it's perfect for our slip-n-slide and during winter..is GREAT for sledding!!
every first Saturday Lowes or Home Depot has free kids workshops. here we are at the first one in February...Sarah was being goofy!
we have really tried focusing on the girls writing and spelling their names..they love to do "homework!
every day that passes we really thank Jesus for touching our little girl! WE have been blessed! the girls find themselves talking about Jesus and Heaven and going there some day. Sarah has begun to ask questions about the day we found out she had a tumor in her head and how the doctor took it out. she asks all the time why she had Cancer. Questions i knew we would be answering sooner or later. We share what we know she will understand in ways she will understand. and there are questions she asks that we simply have to say," I don't know" she woners and voices why did Jesus not take her to heaven(though i want her to rejoice in the healing,,,,i get teary eyed hearing my 4 year old ask these kinds of question) i find myself looking at her and asking Jesus the same questions, why did you choose to heal her. i know God has an awesome plan, and i am so thankful beyond words that she has been healed, it just hurts to know that other mothers don't get to see their daughters or sons healing this side of heaven.

every night i thank the Lord for one more day with Sarah, and I thank him for his healing touch, i don't take one day for granted.
not sure where all that came from..just have a heart to share tonight.
i have been following a couple of families who have/had little girls with cancer. one lost the fight this side of heaven at the age of 4 and one fighting for her life. when i hear of families like these i can' help but get alump in my stomach, knowing how close we came to this ugly thing called cancer taking out daughters life as well.
will you please pray for these to families?
