Happy Birthday Christopher 9-15-2009

We celebrated Christopher's birthday last Sunday. It felt so very good to be able to celebrate another birthday with this little guy. Words cannot express how grateful I am to God for showing us so much mercy. He performed a miracle and healed Christopher. I am so overwhelmed with gratitude and humbled when I think of all the amazing friends and family we have who dropped what they were doing on that busy day and cried out to God to save Christopher. I like to believe that Jon and Danny pleaded as well. I always wanted to think that I am able to protect my children from harm and have a lot of control over our lives. Truth is I don't. God is in control of every little detail. That in some ways is a little frightening to realize I am not in control, but more than that is is wonderful to know that this awesome God is directing each step all we have to do is trust him. Who could keep my family better? Most definately not I. We went to see Dr. Ling on Tuesday. (Dr. Ling is my new Superman) he said Christopher is doing great. He told Hans we are very lucky. We were given the green light to let this little guy run wild and free. Praise the Lord. I cannot get my pictures uploaded so I will do that a little later.
