I didn't blog about this yesterday because we were really in the thick of it and it was all I could do to get through the day at work.
My beautiful nephew Benjamin is in the NICU in Iowa. He has two serious infections. The good news is that we got some results back today and if he holds steady and doesn't have any setbacks we are only looking at 14 days in the NICU verses the Month they were originally thinking. This is a huge praise!
He is getting his own private room in the NICU today, Kev and Liz are getting cots in his room and being allowed to stay there 24/7 which is wonderful.
Things to pray for right now:
Safety for my Parents as they drive to Iowa this afternoon to be with the threesome.
Rest for Kevin and Liz
Benjamin to get his appetitte back and start eating more- he is so sick and miserable at this point eating is not high on his list of priorities (He's a Hendress though this should change!!)
The meds to build up in his little body and start working and making him feel better- We're hoping in the next 12-24 hours this will happen
We all thank you for your prayers for our precious Benjamin and our family. God is definately at work and we trust in him and rest in his love!
1 John 5:14-15 And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.

Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...
