Finding Joy in pain

Nothing new to report. We have spent the last couple of days advocating for our son and dealing with insurance mess. We have gotten nowhere. We have to go back to our old group and start from scratch. We will do this tomorrow and trust that God will protect Noah as we wait for more appointments with new doctors. His plan is greater than ours and he sees things that we don't always see. He is giving me encouragement when I'm at my weariest points and for that I'm so grateful.

Our Friends are in Ethiopia right now preparing to bring there two sons home. This has given me incredible joy. You can read all about there journey here

I can not say thank you enough for all the meals and cards and help with the kiddos. What a blessing. Noah has had a good week. He has been in better spirits. He said the Lord answered his prayers about not having the Cath test. :) bless his heart. Hate to break the news to him about more visits when he sais something like that. Continue to keep us in your prayers.
