"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35

  Last week at this time I was sitting with my 7 week old watching the snow starting to fall on the mountains from a hospital rocking chair.  Our family had been hit by a double whammy of sickness. We had just come home from a trip and had sick kids, no groceries, nights of no sleep, and our newborn had to be hospitialized for respiratory distress. 

  However, in all of this so many of you stepped in to pick up food, bring meals, check in on my kids, and PRAYED. What a sense of comfort during that time that I didn't have to worry about what my family was heating up for dinner or if my kids needed something you would be there in a second. It let me focus on the task of bringing my baby home from the hospital. 

  You texted prayers and prayed with me on the phone. Without a doubt, we felt your prayers and in 24 hours we went from the doctors walking me through what to expect if they had to quickly intubate her to low flow oxygen and talk of going home on oxygen. Six hours later from that we went home with no oxygen at all! It was a beautiful turn around and we are so grateful.

  Thank you all for the time spent in prayer. Thank you for dropping off food and meals. Thank you for the support you gave us and checking in. You made such a difference.
