It is Well With My Soul...

Great News! The pediatrician just called me (mom) and said that Allie's CT Scan from yesterday looks completely fine and normal. She had a CT Scan before she left the NICU, and the scan revealed brain calcifications, which could have been an early sign of celebral palsy (worst case scenario). So, this scan was scheduled to check and hopefully rule that out. The doctor said that there was no sign of calcifications and everything looked normal! Praise God! God is great and greatly to be praised! Thanks to everyone for keeping us and our beautiful baby in your prayers.


“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7

I LOVE to sing, and the song that I love to sing to the girls is one of two of my favorite songs. It's an oldie but definitely a goodie (hence the title of the post today)!


It is Well with my Soul

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
when sorrows like sea billows roll;
whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.


Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
let this blest assurance control,
that Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
and hath shed his own blood for my soul.


My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!


And, Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
the clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
the trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
even so, it is well with my soul.


It is well with my soul, it is well, it is well with my soul.

Allie is all "jumped" out


Mommy helping Brooke sit up. She doesn't quite have the muscle strength that Allie has, but she's getting there!

I've been lurking around since I found your site and just wanted to say that we are so pleased that the CT scan results were all clear! What a relief for you both!

Blessings,

M&C,
Thank you so much! We have been so overly blessed with these two girls and their overall health!

Are you guys in country or overseas right now?

Hi, we are living in Wales now, in the UK. We moved in January! Your girls are so sweet and I love that they share a crib, that is so sweet.
