Thursday we went to Milli's school (yes, it is dress up day). Milli is a friend of my parent's (and now mine) who is also the teacher who had her first grade class pray for Emily all of last year and now has her current kids praying for her too. She was the one who sent us the music box with a note and picture from each student inside for Emily's first birthday. Anyway, she wanted to show the kids how God answers prayers so we took our little miracle in for a visit.
First we went into the second grade class where her students from last year could see the baby they prayed for. Sorry the pics are small...it's my mom's point and shoot and the quality won't blow up large.
They were so cute and had SO MANY questions. The easiest to answer was, "What is her favorite color?" and the hardest to answer was, "Why does her head move around like that?" We did the best we could to answer them all and then they prayed for Emily again (that is why their arms are reaching out to her). I am convinced God uses kids in a special way when people need prayer and it brought great joy to my heart to show Emily to them and thank them myself for all their prayers.
This little boy wanted to share his hat with K. Kids are so sweet! :-)
Then we headed over to Milli's current class...
We answered a lot more questions and in the end, the kids all wanted her to wear their hats, so we tried a few on.
Then we let the girls play a little before heading to IKEA.
In the store, K had to push Em...the only problem is her height. She is too short to see so she pushes Em all over the place, mostly in circles. :)
We were looking for bunk beds that would fit in Nana's tiny house so K was helping to measure.
She also tested out each bed to make sure it was up to par.
Em still only cares about walking around...
...and trying to do everything big sister does.
I know it looks like her finger is in her nose but it was supposed to be a shot of her with her thumb in her mouth! :)
When we got home, we tried to put on the shirts Milli gave us from her school and take a pic...this was the most cooperative they were going to get after a long day like that.
The rest of these are just random pictures that I stole off my Mom's camera...
K playing 'wap (wrap) me like a baby'.
Thanks Milli for letting us visit and particularly for all the prayers! For those praying for Em's allergy attack just now, she is doing better. It was a rough road for a couple days while we tried to find a medicine that didn't make her throw up, but now the drainage has stopped, the fever that tried to come last night is gone and we are just waiting for her cough to clear up. We haven't used her inhaler all day today and the shallow, rapid breathing has disappeared as well. Thanks again! God Bless!!
