More Precious with each New Day

Libi is taking a little nap and I have 45 minutes before her next appointment. So...time for a quick update. I want to once again say thank you for the prayers. We are continuing to see Libi come to life before our very eyes. I think you will be able to see it for yourself in these pictures.

The major medical breakthrough had been with her seizure medication. Her blood levels came back very high indicating a major adjustment being needed for this medication. Since we have changed this she has been much more alert and animated.

She is really showing that she "knows" her family. It is hard to keep her "in" and in just mamma's arms, but it really is best for her. Days where we are out a little more or around more people it seems to "shut her down" a bit. I see her security improving and know it takes time. I am so thankful for the divine wisdom that God has given to Brad and I to read her and know when she has had enough. I was sharing with a friend last night how she had all these little habits of soothing herself to sleep at night. She would go through her little routine of things before she would finally drift off to sleep. We have seen these behaviors grow less necessary for her. Praise the Lord! This is such a huge sign of her growing comfort and security.

Sunday we went out to lunch and she sat in a wooden high chair and opened her mouth for each bite until her whole jar of baby food was devoured! This is huge success for this little angel. Brad and I were so excited!!

She will continue to see many doctors over the next couple of weeks. This Friday she will have and EEG. To us this is probably the most critical test. It will show us what is going on neurologically. I don't know that we will know the results until the 13th when we meet with a neurologist.

On Sunday we were at church and Libi Faith came to life when we began to worship. She was belly laughing. Now for a little girl that you practically have to stand on your head to make smile, unless your name if Joel, this is HUGE! She was clapping and singing. She liked it so much more than our "Annie" sing along. Our pastor prayed for sweet Libi. Something that struck me in his prayer was when he prayed for Libi's healing, and thanked the Lord that it has already begun. I believe this completely. The day Libi Faith was birthed into our arms her healing began, and it continues with each New Day. Continue to join us in prayer as we see the Lord heal our daughter mind, body, and spirit

Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed;
save me and I will be saved,
for you are the one I praise.
