Too Much Excitement?

What an exciting evening – and that is not always good!  

Grandpa came by around 5pm to pay some attention to Rebekah.  He also took care of going to get some Pizza for dinner which was awesome.  We also had to deal with putting a car seat into his car because he and Grandma C will have Sarah starting Friday evening.

While dealing with the car seat, getting food etc. Debbie brought Sarah back.  Oh ya, the whole world also came to a stop to watch a plane flying around LA with nose gear problems.  Every nurse, room, patient, TV etc. glued to watching what, thankfully turned out to be non-eventful.  Debbie helped pull Sarah and Rebekah around together in a wagon.  It was really good to see the girls together for a while.  We had to get a trunk full of stuff and a car seat (that goes with Sarah) out of Debbie’s car and up into the room.

Keeping track?  We now have Rebekah, Sarah, mommy, daddy, grandpa, Debbie, a wagon, two strollers and two IV poles (not to mention poor nurse Wendy trying to get stuff done) in a room barely big enough for two people most of the time.  

Then Debbie left and Daryl and Ginger came to get Sarah.  A stroller, car seat and pile of stuff all down to their truck while the girls continued to play together in the bed or in the wagon.  Once we got all that loaded we had to go out to the trailer to get the play pen that also goes with Sarah.  SO MUCH STUFF!  Daryl and Ginger will have Sarah until Friday.

When I got back to the room about 8:15pm Rebekah had finished with her wagon ride and was throwing up all over the place.  I guess we had just a bit too much excitement.  Pray that she and mommy will get better for the evening.  

Also while all this was going on I ran into Gage’s mommy in the hallway.  Now Gage, Rebekah and Josh are all here together.  Gage and Josh are not supposed to be here and are because of complications.  Please pray for all of them.

Yes, praying for you. Praying too that God would have mercy on the land and the people in the path of hurricane Rita.

I thought , today of how I have been forgetting baby Sarah in my prayers...I shan't forget anymore! My heart and as much energy as I have to spare ( which I will admit is pitifully little!) is yours for the taking. Much love from england to Rebekah and all those little people who need it. Helen.

Praying for y'all and so grateful for every step forward, no matter how tiny. May those tiny steps soon become strides and leaps towards full recovery.

God's Grace.
