Tonight I couldn't help but feeling so grateful for the progress Annabel is making. To others it may seem slow, but to us it means the world, for her and us. With Annabel it is a race to work when she is well. By work, I mean therapy. With these special little ones, you can make two steps forward and then you are hit with illness and you take 10 backwards.
As I sat her down by the tree tonight, I realised last year that she would not have been able to sit alone. This year I can actually move away from her and take a picture. She also showed an interest in the ornaments and also playing with the bow on the presents. At this point, Annabel is doing better than she has since the storm. I am truly praising God for the healing he has allowed Annabel at this point and praying for her during her winter months. Praying that she will stay as well as possible, that she will be able to control her secretions and stay as free of UTI issues as possible. Thank you for checking in!

Cathy,
I am grateful right along side of you for Annabel's progress. I don't see anything "slow" here Cathy, as she is progressing in Gods time. Only He knows every single detail of her little body and life, and He sees it as perfect. It is us out here that need to see the miracle that she is. And how about our Zoe? Look at what God is doing here. And of course our sweet Mallorie Rose. I just love how these precious kids show me how I need to slow down. They are here to teach us. I just love the joy I see in everyone of these pictures!!!:) I too will be praying for these little ones during the winter season, that they stay well and continue bringing so much joy. I love you Cathy and Annabel too.

I just want you to know that I am blessed beyond measure each time I see Miss Anabelle's smile. The obvious joy that she radiates keeps things in perspective for me. Thank you for sharing her life through this blog.

What a precious child! I'm so happy to hear that she is doing so well! Awesome pictures!
What wonderful pictures! She always has a smile to take my breath but how can anyone look at those pictures and not just be filled to the brim. I have said it before and I'm sure I will again but Cathy she is SO beautiful! God has such perfect plans for her and his timing is always perfect.
I love the glitter shirt! p.s. I agree with Annabel in the last post about the snow. I feel the same way when I walk out the door and feel the chill.
She is God's perfect miracle!!! I love the pictures and I know the time involved in getting them up for us to all see. Thanks for giving us all a gift!
Yay Annabel! We are cheering you on!
