Hola Amigos,
I'm much better today, a good night sleep did wonders for me - making coping with the kids "overall loudness" much easier. Yesterday was a very bad day, ending in tears over the fact that Ross announced after he got home that they moved my beloved elderly neighbor to Chicago - no opportunity to say goodbye. A call to my Mom for support (yes I'm 40 and I still need Mom - I'm so blessed to have her) and all is well and back to "normal".
A little girl (about age 7?) with down's syndrome made herself at home on my lap today for about a half hour while at the YMCA, she was just full of love. Reminded me of the potential of the little down's syndrome baby that came to the clinic struggling for life last week...thank you God for that reminder - to keep praying for the mother of that little 6 pound, 2 month old - half the size it should be - praying that formula came and he's gaining some weight. The mother is trying to keep him alive, it's a good thing. God bless Carmen, the nurse, who is looking after that child and his mother as well as the health committee.
There are several others for people to lift up in prayer. One woman that Sandy mentioned in her blog was asking for prayer for her two son's - one whom left is wife for another woman and another that left home with no reason. Another woman came asking for help for her sick father that needed to get to the hospital, needing food and overwhelmed by the recent death of her mother. A drunk teen that showed up at the first day of our music ministry, the son of an alcoholic and one of the 11 brothers of the down syndrome baby. The men that stole one of our mission supply bags and for the former "bad boys" of San Jose, that they continue their faith journey started just about two months ago with the idea of our music ministry/festival.
Thanks to all that prayed for our mission team, they were heard, answered and felt. - Alisa
