So happy for you guys!!! You really deserve a nice trip to Disney World.
ReplyDeleteWe just go back from Disney and while there, I thought about Lucy maybe getting a chance to go. Magical....so glad that you will be able to share that with your family. God bless you with sunny skies, short lines, family fun, and years of time together!
ReplyDeleteYAY! Have a magical time! Can't wait to read all about it. So blessed to have participated in the half marathon this weekend! I saw someone on your team. I "bump drafted" with her at some points during the race! ;o)
ReplyDeleteSuch a magical place for such a magical family! My family went last year. Oh my, it's like no other place on the planet! I don't think the workers could be mean if they tried! Lucy honestly takes my breath away at her continued strength, and you make me yearn to be a better mother every day with your brutal honest faith. My daughter has taken dance with Ella, and was on Erik's team last year in Upwards. Although we barely know you, I feel like you all are a part of our family. My mother and I check the blog everyday. We hurt when ya'll are hurting and recoice when you rejoice. We take you all everywhere in our prayers and will continue to throughout Lucy's continued recovery. She is in our continued prayers along with all of the other children who are strickened with this and all illnesses. I think so much of each of your family members. I can't wait to hear Lucy's testimony in her later years. It will be quite an awesome one!
ReplyDeleteDelurking just to say - Have a wonderful time with your family!
ReplyDeleteI have been reading your blog for months as one of my friends linked you out on her blog. I am so incredibly happy for you and your family. You are such a strong woman of faith and wish nothing but the best for sweet little Lucy and the rest of your family!
