Just two photos of Sophie Wei from her hospital stay....
Reminding myself that we are making progress and to be thankful for that.
Small steps.
22 Down, 22 to go!
Every day together is a blessing.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 4:6-7
Music motivates, inspires and moves me.
Going through my life journey I can think of certain songs that remind me of that time.
For example,
Thunderstruck By AC/DC, Playing With the Boys by Kenny Loggins/Top Gun = Senior Year Volleyball Warm Ups = competition, fun, spikes, blocks, Wendy my best partner/challenger, floater serves, homecoming soon!!
So What by Pink = New Attitude = Sophie Wei's recovery (this deserves it's own post at a later date.)
Here is another one of them that has touched me right now during Sophie Wei's recovery, Bring the Rain! I learned about this song from this web site: Bring the Rain. I have been reading for many months now, can't remember exactly when?? I highly recommend it.
Bring the Rain - Mercy Me
I can count a million times
People asking me how I
Can praise You with all that
I've gone through
The question just amazes me
Can circumstances possibly
Change who I forever am in You
Maybe since my life was changed
Long before these rainy days
It's never really ever crossed my mind
To turn my back on you, oh Lord
My only shelter from the storm
But instead I draw closer through these times
So I pray
Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings
You glory And I know there'll
be days When this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to
praise You Jesus, bring the rain
I am yours regardless of the clouds that may
loom above because you are much greater than
my pain you who made a way for me suffering
your destiny so tell me whats a little rain
[1st Chorus]
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
is the lord God almighty
is the lord God almighty
I'm forever singing
[2nd Chorus 2x]
everybody singing
Holy holy holy
you are holy
you are holy
Today we also received a suprise visit from Becca, Emma and Sara.
What a nice time to spend before bed and help pass the cranky time :O)
Thanks, we are glad you guys Just DO IT!

Great new song!
So sorry that you are going through so much right now. I will be praying for little Sophie to continue to heal and for her to feel safe and loved~ (our babies have been through so much in their short lives...sniff, sniff)
Found your blog back during the awful earthquake, and somehow have found my way back to you guys again! As glad as I am to see Sophie with her Forever Family, I am sorry to hear she is still having her surgeries. Our thoughts and prayers are with you again!!
