Such a sweet baby girl...

   Scilla was so happy to go back to Roger C. Peace on today! She went back about 12:30 and was anxious to get in her wheelchair because she was tired of lying on her back for over a week! She is in great spirits and excited to return to therapy on Thursday.

       I have been wanting to mention this in my blog for a while and today is the excellent opportunity. Since about December I have been praying for Baby Emma. The daughter of one of my high school classmates. Emma was diagnosed with Spina Bifida while in utero. I had been praying for her healing since I learned about the diagnosis. Well, little Emma was born on March 16, the day after my sister had her accident and immediately had to go into surgery. Emma was born into an awesome family; she has so many people who cares for and continues to pray for her. I would love for everyone reading my blog to add Emma to your prayer list. Emma will be hitting the 4 week old mark this week and she has been through a lot, but she has an awesome mom and dad that are there with her ALL the time and I ask that you pray for their strength, because as first time parents they really have a lot to handle.
  
     Emma has so many people praying for her and her parents have such a strong faith and belief in God which is carrying them through this very rough time. At this point, I do not think they are sure of exactly what Emma will be able to do or not do because of her spina bifida; but I am still praying for Emma daily and asking God for healing. I find it ironic the closeness of Emma's birth to my sister's accident, seeing as they both have issues with their spines. I think that Emma is going to be ok and she will have the ability to do whatever her hearts desire and I know God is going to heal her, I feel it in my heart. In praying for Emma, I have said I felt like I knew her even before she was born, and her parents and I are  not close or anything of that nature, but God always keeps her on my mind. Every day as I go to the hospital and at night when I am praying, I think of Emma and I can't help but think that God has great things in store for that beautiful baby girl.

For those of you who would like to keep up with Emma, she is on my blog roll and she is a precious little angel, i tell you!
