(It took me at least 45yrs to get to where you are now..) You are on the gifted track and I know that He has something so wonderful for you, Kit and Ellie. I keep praying for all of you, daily. I love you all..Aunt Rae<br /><br />PS: Tell Anonymous to be patient and to do what God wants her to do. I had Christopher at 43 because it was God's timing and He had a lot to teach me before becoming a mother! I wouldn't trade any part of my life for anything, because I now know God is in total control.

Seriously, I don't know how people do it. It is so reasurring to know that he is in control & we aren't. Pregnancy/parenting is so humbling because I did feel rather self sufficient in many areas before kids...but not any more! I need God's strength constantly.

I keep returning to find out how she is doing, and to put my life into perspective a bit. <br />My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for almost a year now and the road is starting to seem never-ending. The way you have handed Ellie and yourself over to God in this trying time and fully trusted in him has been such an inspiration to me to do the same in my life.<br />I have always been a beliver, but sometimes it is hard to let go of the things that mean the most to you. Thanks for reminding me that everything will happen in His time. <br />Thanks for sharing your heart!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6307778671703210059.post-60486720298330453822009-05-20T12:10:43.692-07:002009-05-20T12:10:43.692-07:00I love you:)I love you:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18180755842021300489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6307778671703210059.post-65943376180761515152009-05-20T09:32:33.310-07:002009-05-20T09:32:33.310-07:00Ohhhh my goodness!

I'm in a different place than you - I'm getting married in 3 weeks, but it's still a control issue. I'd rather figure things out on my own since I've been so independent for 24 years...but God is changing me, and my heart!<br />I'm still praying for you & Kit! I can not believe how quickly Elise is growing up! I'm praying that she grows out of her episodes, and comes home when all is ready!<br />We do serve a great God who knows all the perfect timings, and although I know you want her at home, its seemingly important to have her in the NICU - who knows... maybe GOd is using you there to minister to the MDs, RNs or other parents! Just another thought! =)<br />Still praying!<br />~Krista from SeattleKristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07517562072978762737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6307778671703210059.post-70960052794537725062009-05-20T08:07:04.938-07:002009-05-20T08:07:04.938-07:00I'm very, very much a Type A, planner, list, let's...I'm very, very much a Type A, planner, list, let's be organized in action kind of person. So having Cadence arrive on the wrong end of the Pacific Ocean 14 weeks early really threw everything for a loop. I truly had to learn to surrender it all and boy did He provide. And I learned so much! You are so wise and strong Emily. I continue to be impressed by your strength and grace and ability to see His work and blessings in all this. I really hope we can meet next month :)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732014961087715914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6307778671703210059.post-26062652224091349552009-05-20T05:51:04.845-07:002009-05-20T05:51:04.845-07:00that was a beautiful , inspiring post.

I continue to pray that Elise will be completely well soon. She will continue to bring such love, joy and happiness to your life.

You'll always have His faithfulness in this situation to look back on as you encounter different sorts of "letting go" in Elise's life. Her first steps, first day of school, first drive alone in a car (AH!), first date - and then someday giving her away to a husband. It's a far ways off still - but how gracious of the Lord to start that work in your heart now. He's truly amazing. :)Becca Sue Congdonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12734179830053160745noreply@blogger.com
