HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAYTON!


12 Candles on Dayton's cake this year!
That's right, on Saturday he'll be 12 years old. Larry took both of the guys to Chadwick this evening (the boys start 4 day spring break tomorrow) to camp and ride bikes. This is the first time that Dayton has shown any interest since his accident. However, he has absolutely NO interest in riding his motorcycle. He says he'll stick to the 4-wheeler for a little bit. A-OK with mom. Larry says that Dakota is becoming quite a rider these days on his bike. I gave him a teeny weenie lecture before they left about not getting too cocky/gutsy and riding foolishly. He promised he wouldn't. Hmmmmmm....
Isaiah 40:31 says that those who wait upon the Lord will renew their strength. TODAY, our strength was renewed. I checked my e-mail via my phone while at work today and noticed one from Villa Hope. It said that the SNA office had reviewed our dossier already and just needed a couple clarifications. Please don't miss the coolest thing here.....they told us it would probably be a couple months while we waited to be approved, Yesterday was 3 weeks!!! The problems they had were: Dayton's birth date was recorded wrong on his physical examination and my doc had crossed out something that he had written and they didn't like that. I quickly got on the phone and asked both doctor's offices if they would write the little letter they were requesting, stating the corrections and mine is ready for me to pick up tomorrow and Dayton's will be ready to pick up on Monday. Both offices agreed to have them notarized and I will hopefully have them sealed at the Secretary of State on Monday and put in the mail to Chicago for the last set of seals.
The movement so quickly is very encouraging. Our strength is renewed!
We are soaring.........on wings...................like eagles!
