Dedication and the "sick bug"

This past Saturday we dedicated Naomi at our church. It was very important to us to stand in front of our church family and make a promise to raise her in the Lord; one, for accountability, and two, to celebrate our new daughter and allow others to rejoice with us that she is in our arms!! Though she was starting to feel under the weather, we decided to go ahead and stick with our plans. I wish I could say she was SO happy and was on her best behavior; however, as I wrestled her into her traditional chinese dress and we waited in line for our turn on stage, it was apparent she really was not feeling too well. Because I am so short, we were hardly seen on stage, as we were in the second row of 150 people....so all her tears and cries were not seen or heard. Bless her heart. The days since have only gotten a little worse. She has been fighting a horrible cold, Nate has had a bad cold which has turned into a bad cough and his asthma is acting up, and the stomach bug has re-entered our house for the second time in 2 weeks.....
If you have a moment, please pray for health and restoration of our children (and Joel).
If we can pray for you, please don't hesitate to leave a comment.......
