Strong? Brave? Not me......

People think I'm strong and brave - but I'm not. My God is my strength - He is a good good father who loves me so intensely and He is carrying me through this. I surrendered my life to Christ and He is taking better care of me than I ever could! There have been so many blessings along this heartbreaking journey there is no denying that GOD IS IN CONTROL.....Elijah and I could not be in better hands!!! I miss my baby - we may be in different places but the same God holds us both in his loving embrace.

Name

Elijah - Jehovah is God "We should call him Elijah because God took Elijah up to heaven" Colton (age 8) Paul - Small or humble He was small in size but mighty in impact and love

Continuing with the hard stuff

Elijah was taken away this afternoon.  No words can describe where we are right now. I can't even get anything real out right now. I want to share but not there yet. But soon God has been good to us thru this. Even thru the pain the blessings are apparent. Love you all and thank you so much for the support. We are planning on having a service at 10:30, Wednesday at Prairie Lakes Church

Precious moments

A new day

The whole thing is so surreal. Just 2 weeks ago we found out that something wasn't right. Now just 14 days later, we sit with Elijah. Amber is again impressing all the nurses with her quick recovery. It will be a long process, due to Elijah's head size they had to cut through some muscle tissue. Amber is taking some pain medications so she is remaining comfortable. It will be a long process physically, and a forever process emotionally. I have no idea what to expect next, or even what to want.  We continue to pray to God for peace and understanding as  attempt to process all they has happened.

Amber is doing well, in recovery. She's loving on her little man, Elijah Paul.  His time with us is short but his impact will live on.
