First time at church!!

Hello everyone!!!

Hope you are all doing well!! Today was a very special day. Today was the first day we were able to take Emilie to church. We were also given an extended day pass. Our first passes were only 4 hours, but today they said to come back whenever. I said,"never???" ...I guess not. We would have to go back for more oxygen at some point.

Emilie loved church. She loved the singing. She was dancing!! ;) We praise God for allowing us to bring her to His house. We hope to take her every week.

Anyway, things may be looking up for bringing her home. We have an appointment about individualized funding on Friday, May 11, 2007 at 3:30pm. Please remember to pray for this. You are all a real blessing to us. I thinks sometimes we forget to thank-you and tell you how much you mean to us. Prayer works and God fulfills His promises when He feels we are ready for them - when He is ready for them.

I was thinking today about what it would be like if things had turned out differently. Seeing all of these babies all around Emilie's age walking and toddling around. Then I got to thinking that God wouldn't have given Emilie to us if HE didn't think we are the perfect parents for her. I strongly believe that. There is a reason for why God gave Emilie to us. Maybe because she needed us, as well as the fact that we needed her. Wow!! Looking over the last year I've learned an awful lot about myself as a person. Looking into Emmy's eyes, I've learned a lot about who I want to be.

We thank God each day for our supporters. We can't thank you enough. Always remember that, even though we can't thank-you verbally enough, we are always thanking God for the blessing of all of you who pray for our baby. She (we) wouldn't have made it this far if it weren't for your prayers for her and for us. Your diligence is wonderful. May God bless you all this month. I will be posting some more pictures on the other website sometime this week, if I can find a free moment or two.

We love you all,

Darwin, Sherri, Taylor, and especially Emilie:)
