The Lord has been so gracious to answer our specific prayer requests.  One specific request that we made yesterday was that the Lord would show us a sign through Anna that she was fighting and improving - it's been tough for us these last few days to see so little change, and we just wanted to ask the Lord for a breadcrumb.  Well, late last night, just before we left for bed, Lael put her finger in Annie B's hand, and Anna responded by squeezing her finger, ever so gently.  I put my finger in Anna's other hand, and she did the same thing.  These are her first moves in response to outside stimulation since last week!  This morning we tickled her feet, and she wiggled and lifted her foot away!  She has not lifted her foot since she came here - only curled it down.  We are so grateful to God for continuing to restore her to complete health and for giving us this blessing!

Please pray for her surgery this afternoon (it is not certain that it will happen this afternoon, please just pray for the Lord to make a way if it's His will).  Pray that she comes through just fine, no complications, no problems with the anaesthesia, etc.  When we hear if it will happen for sure or not, I'll post it here if I can.

As you probably noticed, there's a lot of people reading this every day.  We continue to be so humbled to watch the people of God come together and act as a body - we give the Glory to God, and to all of you, we extend our most sincere thanks.  Please pray for everyone who's reading this, that the Lord will send comfort, peace, love, whatever the need, to every one.

Addison is doing good, they are still looking to send her home Thursday.  Please continue to pray for her complete healing.  She's a little sweetheart!

God bless you all,

Richard
