life is continuing at a rapid pace. i keep changing diapers. i keep doing laundry. i keep taking pictures of my two beautiful treasures.
but i just haven't been able to document it.
because any time i get a chance for my mind and my heart to settle on something in the middle of "life", they always settle on David, on Renee, and on Zander and Aiden.
we are still praying. we are still believing in a God who performs miracles. a God who makes water come out of rocks. a God who raises people from the dead.
but the heaviness is getting heavier.
and faith is moving quickly from "belief" to "choice".
it's funny, because i was just reading everything i just wrote and my phrase about not being able to document life stuck out at me. because David was all about documenting life. ALL ABOUT IT.
and i really wasn't going to put any pictures in this post. but now i will.
she is now 10 months old. say what? i pulled out the camera to do some 9 month pics with her a couple weeks ago. didn't really get any great ones and her face was a disaster.....i didn't even notice til i downloaded the pictures.
and she is pulling herself up on things now.
and there is much more to get you updated on.
like how i spent 3 hours in the er in the middle of the night because of an INTENSE bladder infection.
and how dave and i are going to florida with some friends tomorrow for a handful of days WITHOUT the girls. (leaving ash for the first time)
wow....
it sure feels wierd to be living life and praying for david and hurting for renee.
and God holds it all. all of it.

I can't believe ashton is pulling herself up onto things!
It's so weird you are going to Florida, was thinking about going to disneyworld in a few months ourselves (but we might not) arg! to my dismay.
The thing about tragedy is that life never stops. You can choose to stop living life, but life never stops.
LIVE.
Hope you are doing well. Sorry to hear about your bladder infection. Have a joyous time in Florida and enjoy your time there my friend. :)
hard to know what to say...but YOU are never far from my mind. and often in my prayers, friend!
Still praying for this family!
Your words speak the emotions of my heart.
Everything I have written about on my blog in the last couple of weeks other than the requests for prayer have seemed so trivial.
But, you are so right. Life continues and David is all about documenting life!!
Mandy...is someone looking for David in Haiti...Do you know what part of Haiti he is in? I'm only asking because we are going in and out of parts of Haiti and if I have more info, maybe we can ask around and get somewhere...
