People That Need Our Help...

Hey Everyone - Happy Friday!

There are a couple of blogs I would like anyone who looks at my blog to visit and leave an encouraging comment if you can after reading their stories.

The first is a woman's blog - a broken hearted woman who is pregnant with her fourth child. This child will be born this Monday, April 7th at 4:00 and will almost certainly not survive outside of her womb. The baby's name is Audrey Caroline and she has multiple problems and no amniotic fluid. This lady's blog is so charming as she describes her wonderful life and the every day happenings with her 5 year old twins and her 2 year old. Mixed in all the charm and sweetness, is what else is going on in her and her husband's life. Please stop by http://audreycaroline.blogspot.com and leave her an encouraging comment if you could. I know she could sure use it and would certainly appreciate it.

The second blog is the husband of a CF patient (cystic fibrosis). I have also followed this blog for several months and this family has been through the process of being listed for a double lung transplant, to an unexpected pregnancy, to the birth of their precious daughter at 25 weeks, to a double lung transplant on April 2nd. Please visit http://cfhusband.blogspot.com and leave them some well wishes and read their story as well.

Blogs like the 2 mentioned above make me very thankful for my life and make me see how trivial and selfish I can be at times. Both of these families have powerful testimonies and live by what they believe with every fiber of their being. Truly inspiring.

Have a great weekend!

ANYONE who has kids who make "schwetty balls" and brag about it all season long is a friend of mine! I need the recipe. That is a hoot. Tucker is so cute! Do you not know how to put a pic in a post? I have been telling Jessi she needs to give a full tutorial, because I have SO many people contact ME about the banner at the top of my page or little tidbits about how to blog, and Jessi really is my go to girl. However, I DO know how to post a picture, so if that is what you need, let me know. Melanie
