Dad's first post, but not the first time walking in God's strength with the trials of my "Yum-yum." A week of her throwing up, barely eating, and when she did eat it was negated. This little one holds very little 'reserves' so her not eating tends to immediately pull down the little reserves she does carry. God's protection kept her from diving way down as she has done in the past, especially after 5 days of this sickness. His grace did keep her hydrated thru-out it all, as well. Thank you Father!
Now in the after-math, her hunger has thankfully returned with a nice vengeance. Mom has also let down after investing everything she had into Sophia's sustenance...letting her guard down and a small sinus cold in. The brightness of God's spring sunlight has been a welcome encouragement in this post-sickness time.
I do have to admit that even though Janet bears the majority of the burden of Sophia's care, I am anxiously awaiting the warm weather for a reprieve from the illnesses that bring such in trepidation to Janet & I. This one makes nine colds/flu's this winter/school season. Lord willing, next year Sophia will shine as she will have built up all the needed anti-bodies to fight off those "yucky bugs!" Janet, I know, would like the respite, mentally & physically.
Thank you again, Lord, for your mighty hand in this little one's life! Your grace abounds!
