Praying for Answers


-We are praying for answers in regards to 2 major needs.

-Our first prayer is that Richard will receive a job offer. He is an interview at 8:00 this morning. I am really feeling good about this interview and Richard is to. (I think.) It's hard to explain.....I have had a feeling that this was his job (or future job) when I saw the job posting and e-mailed it to him. He applied and less then a week later received a call for an interview. There is a peace that feels me when I think of him going for this interview - this is it. Maybe it is wishful thinking but I sure hope not, we NEED this.

-Our second prayer that we find out what Daniel is allergic too. What is causing all the runny noses that seem to quickly turn into pneumonia and all that asthma attacks that require at least a 4 day hospital stay????? Daniel has an appointment with a specialist today at Vanderbilt Children's Allergy Clinic with Dr. Meghan Lemke and will have prick skin allergy testing done. We had to stop Daniel's allergy medicine (Zyrtec) 10 days ago (on Saturday the 11th). Daniel woke up with a runny nose on Sunday and has had problems with runny nose, coughing and congestion every day since. We have had to give him a breathing treatment almost daily. It is obvious to us that Daniel is allergic to something and really needs that Zyrtec. We are ready for answers and ready to start the Zyrtec.

-We ask that you pray with us for the answers that we need. We promise to let you know God's answers to these 2 specific prayers as soon as possible.

"Me, Daniel"


picture by Megan McGee Photography

-Daniel has a language/speech delay. One of his IEP goals for last year and this year has been to say his name when asked, "What is your name?". Daniel usually responds with "Me" when asked. We try to work on the, "What is your name?" question daily. Daniel's response to the question last night was....."Daniel". We were so excited and gave him lots of verbal praising, high fives and thumbs up. We are so thankful for Daniel's wonderful teachers and therapist that work with him daily to meet his goals, he is making wonderful progress.

*Daniel got on the bus this morning, said "Hey, me - Daniel".
