Start Singing Again

With so many pictures and videos from the beach waiting for me to post and whales of stories to share, there is only one thing today.

For everyone who has loved her with us from the beginning and for all of you who have come to love her along the way, another magical day is amongst us-

We are so honored to have the ability to share our little ordinary miracle with you. So many of you include her in your prayers and there has not been a day that those prayers haven't been felt. Today some of those prayers have been answered and amplified. I only wish I could share with you the pure joy that today brought to my soul.

I thank God for the blessings he gives us, in His own time, not ours, so that we can truly be thankful. Amen.

IVEY NOW HAS HEARING AIDS!!!!!.

Now if only there were a way for her to hear all of you saying 'YEAH' as you read this….and as you can see and hear in the videos, we are working with sensory override most of the time around here.

She is just amazing - I can only imagine her little mind when she actually hears you and your "boy's" voices for the first time. "Faith is not a distant view but a warm embrace of Christ." (John Calvin) Your faith has been amazing!
