We've got the call from the scheduling department - Presleigh's procedure is scheduled for 10:30 tomorrow morning. We continue to pray that something comes up that prompts the docs to examine her and find out that God has miraculously healed her. However, we know that God's plans and our prayers don't always coincide. In the event that His perfect plan is "healing by surgery", we're open to that, too. He is trustworthy and praiseworthy, either way.
Pray for healing for sure. Also, pray that if surgery is the option, that the Lord guides and focuses the docs with utmost care. May all the training, craft, and art of surgery that He has exposed them to come to bear on the procedure. Bless their efforts and our little Presleigh for a simple, complete procedure and a swift, thorough recovery.
Bless us and keep us in complete dependence on God, that His name may receive the full glory that only He deserves. Watch over our work as we are away and pray that God breathes a fresh wind of funding into our ministry at a time when we need it most.
May God bless Aarron's efforts as he prepares for his performance of "That Day" in just 11 days, that it may be not for his glory, but for God's. May we open to a sell out crowd and may the story we tell be heard for years to come for God's kingdom and not for ours.
Bless Cristine as a godly mother who desires with all that is in her to learn greater and better things than she has learned from any past generation of mothers, with all respect due to those who have mothered her. May the Lord grow her faith in His ability to do the monergistic work only He can do.
To God Be the Glory!

Houston, We Have a Problem...
Moments ago, Presleigh picked up a toy phone and said "This is my friend, 'Beckett'
. O... M... G... When I catch that little Beckett, he's going to have some 'splaining to do!!!!

Last Wednesday, the following post was accidentally posted on the twins' blog instead of Presleigh's. My bad.
Presleigh's surgery is officially scheduled for next week - Wednesday, about noon. We're eternally grateful for everyone's prayers for her and also grateful for Aunt Shanua making the trip down from Charlotte to help out with the twins while Mommy and Papa are in the hospital for Presleigh's recovery.
You'd never know there was anything going on with her from the outside - running, jumping, climbing, shouting, singing, counting, watching TV, playing with the twins, giving kisses to Mommy, Papa, and the babies... Wow. She's growing up so quickly.
As Mommy and I watched "old" videos from earlier this year, we were amazed at how much she's matured, from the walking to the talking to the facial gestures. Words, words, and more words "Thanks, Mommy!" "My try it!" "Jovi's crying"... Let's hear it for toddler language acquisition and development skills, right?
We threw Presleigh a last minute party and only invited a handful of folks - sorry if you were left out - we realized with all the kids we now know, the house would be overrun with toddlers very quickly. We were right! Cake everywhere, kids all over the place, but a great party nonetheless. And, now, we present to you, Presleigh Pina - 2 year old. We officially no longer have 3 under 2. It's 3 under 3, but thank God for the strength He has given us thus far!
