Never Giving Up Hope

Ok, so mysuper talented friend Ginger took this photo of Hope last weekend and made this super awesome print so I could give it to Howard for father's day as I have not been out shopping and I am SO in love with this sweet baby girl! Look at that little face! PRICELESS! (The adorable bow was made by Tia you can check out her other stuff here)

Anyway I just wanted to share another picture of the sweet little one you are praying for and I must say that so many of our prayers are being answered. Hope is still not showing any signs of new blistering and the old ones are healing nicely. She has not been spitting up much anymore and I am thinking that issue had more to do with my diet than her. I have also been overwhelmed by the number of you who want to help us in some tangible way.

I have to say that accepting help has always been hard for me but in the past few years I have learned that sometimes God sends people to bless us and that in turn blesses them. I have been on both ends and am so grateful for the help we have received. We are a one income family and with the arrival of Hope and her needs I have been worried about finances and getting her the things she needs, but EVERY single need has been taken care of as it arises, we have been blessed with some cloth diapering supplies, bandaging supplies, dinner, soft blankies, encouraging cards, and sweet gifts for Hope and I cannot wait for her to one day look back on the story of her baby days and see how LOVED she is. Thank you all for being the body of Christ. Thank you for being His hands and feet and for carrying us when we are simply too weary to carry ourselves. Thank you. You have lifted our spirits more than you could know. Our hope endures! (literally and figuratively!)
