Hi PeskyOne,
We had tornadoes all around and I was up until 3 am with the other kids last night. Right after the sirens "ended" last night they came back on and we had a whole second round. It was unreal. No twisters touched near us, though.
Today for a while I really felt at the limit of what I could do. I want to do a major update but it seems like there's no time. For the moment I'll just say that Sara seems to be progressing very well and surprisingly quickly, thank God. I credit her spirit, our love, your prayers, and God's help.
Our whole family continues to be under major stress, and the waves of tornadoes didn't help. Hopefully in the next day or two things will start to really settle down.
I want to add to this but at this poitn I just have to fall in bed. Thanks to all, will try & do a more proper update later when I catch up a bit.
Prayers for continued progress.
Kids are resilient.
One day at a time. Count your blessings, Luke, and take a couple of deep breaths. Here's something that works for me: When I feel overwhelmed, I have a private talk with God and tell Him I can't do all this by myself, that I'm giving the big stuff to Him to carry. Immediately, I feel the burden lighten. (God always does the heavy lifting, I think He just likes to be asked.)
Thanks for the update.
God's best in wholeness, healing, provision, safety, comfort, intimacy with Him and each other, guidance, peace . . .
LUB,
Prayers,
