Our Rock

“The bows of the warriors are broken, but those who stumbled are armed with strength.....There is no one holy like the Lord. There is no one besides you. And there is no Rock like our God." 1 Samuel 2


These verses are from Hannah's prayer. She prayed for her son and rejoiced in the Lord's strength. She stumbled, she was broken, she felt like there was no hope to have a son. But there was. She kept praying and hoping and God answered her prayer for a son.

I decide to let some time pass before posting so MG's progress would be more evident. She is beginning to use her walker more and Friday at PT she surprised me with walking a few wobbly steps to me all by herself. She's still hunched over and can't get her leg straight-but this is huge progress and we are so so grateful! It brought tears to my eyes to see her do this. MG has stumbled the last several months, been broken and we have felt like there was no hope at times. But somehow we have been given the strength to move forward and then get to rejoice when there are days like this. He has been our Rock throughout the last 6 months and continues to be.

We continue to pray for full recovery for her, for her hip to straighten out and strength for MG. She's so much happier these days, her pain is diminishing and starts school back this week for her.  I'm no longer hearing "mommy I hurt" all day long. 

MG will have surgery to expand her rods in her back in Philadelphia on September 22. I hate she has to have this done, but we have put it off and she needs her rods expanded. We pray she gains even more strength before this surgery and this isn't a huge setback. But it is another surgery and we pray God covers us like never before going into this one.
Hope you can see this little video of MG!

Thank you for your continued prayers!
