Praise God for Answered Prayer

For this child, we prayed. This is "That Little Guy" that many of you have heard me speak of. Due to privacy for the family, I have not been able to share many details. I could only ask many of you for recommendations and prayer. If you want to finally have the details, his mother is writing a blog about our experience in hopes of helping other families. Rob is considering writing software with me that will help speed diagnosis and treatment from a professional prospective. Things are happening. Prayers are being answered. Please continue to pray for our families as we continue to heal Teagan and hopefully countless others as well.

Visit his parents new blog and their story Here. Click the title page at the top to read all the entries and put them in your reader if you want to continue to learn more. I have high hopes that this blog will be as good as Mom's photo blog. It's how I found them to begin with.

Monday night, Lyndsay's good friend, Michelle from Pinkletoes , came out to take celebratory recovery photos of Teagan. Lyndsay asked if I would join them. It was a highlight of my week. I'm so proud of this little guy and how far he and his family have come.

I mean, seriously, how could I not pour my heart into this little guy for three months? He is as sweet and spunky as he looks.
This photo was taken just as I arrived to the photo shoot. I love his smile. The squeeze. The knowledge that I am looking at Mom with a "Well Done! Look how far we have come.... let's celebrate! I love your little duder, too. " :)
Michele captured some amazing light here. When I see this photo, I am awestruck at God's grace and provision for us. His light shone through so many of the things we tried and people we encountered. I didn't realize I was going to be in the photo. I was just trying to get a good smile from him and he loved this in my little sessions with him. Michele caught it.
The light behind Lyndsay and Teagan just glows here. His little hand in hers is so precious. She cared enough to put so many things aside for him. She listened to her gut, and she worked hard for the outcome.
Erin, Michelle P., Laura, Brian, Jana, Dad, Dr. Treybig, Pastor Mike, Katie, Carolyn, Ashley, Diana, Rosemary, and so many others: Thank you so much for your advice and insight as I sought answers. To my sweet kids, thank you for sharing your mommy and toys with this family. To my sweet, adoring husband, thank you for supporting me. In so many ways. We joked that it became a loose tooth and I was obsessive. But you were selfless enough to sacrifice your time to give me time to help them. You even researched along side me. You found your own passion through this as well. May we find balance as we move forward and always be reminded of God's great power and glory.
