Friday Dinner and Saturday Daytime

Friday (last night) we went to the Stovers' for a group dinner. There was a couple who came from Huntsville, Alabama, whose child has Cerebral Palsy, they are considering stem cells for her and had a lot of questions of Sabrina and me. Brooke was a bit whiny that night, she ended up getting sick, just a one time vomit episode, I'm sure she drank too much pool water the day before. All is fine.
The days and time spent together pass, and we are getting very close. Especially the girls!! Jordan joined us tonight at an auction (not the original plan, but she knew Brooke would be there and insisted on going!!) We will see them in the morning for church, (Their minister who joined us for dinner last night, has been very touched by our story and plans to have the girls be the focus of the sermon!) Mind you, this is a congregation of 800 in attendance every Sunday! I'm so proud of both of them, y'all know how it is at home with Brooke, she sets so many examples, and can you imagine another little girl who can totally relate to Brooke, both doing their mission in life without even realizing it! That to me is the Holy Spirit at work. It will be a very emotional morning tomorrow, and I refuse to think about good-bye, that will be worst for two little girls, and two grown mama's!! And a big sister Taelor who has fallen in love with Miss Brooke and vice versa! We have felt so welcome here, tonight's our last night, and thankfully tomorrow it's a late flight so the girls can spend some time together. As beautiful as this trip has been, and very enlightening, I look forward to coming home, I miss y'all and need hugs from Ed and Brady. A little side story here, we saw a puppy (well, two hangin out a truck window). Brooke said, "wah-ee" (the name she uses for our dog Vincent) and I asked if she missed Vince. She said, "yeah." Then she said "Da, Brady, Grandma, Cind, " meaning she missed all those people as well. I said "Who do you miss the most?" Can you believe it....she said, "Jordan".
