Tonight as were resting down to sleep this momma is humbled at the generosity of so many friends, family and people we have never met. I have not learned a word that would describe the feelings in my heart. Your prayers are so appreciated, I have watched Gods hands all over my babies and the worries in my heart and mind eased and taken away. Your encouraging words have lifted my spirits and have been inspirations to so many people who are watching this remarkable outpouring of love for these precious children. Part of my prayers last night were just to see brooklyns eyes and to know she remembers me, that she is still in there somewhere. God is faithful and today..... Brooklyn opened her eyes one time for me!!! She was being moved from side to side and opened her eyes and was looking toward the nurse, I said her name and watched as her eyes slowly made their way to my face. She starred and I was able to tell her happy birthday.!! She began to wiggle around and lift her arms off the bed before falling right back to sleep. It was well with my soul to get even that small snippet today. A peace of comfort has come across my soul and I have been able to sit back today and just reflect and give God glory for all hes done and his hands of healing working on my children. Brooklyn.... We are making small steps, but small is better than none. She is being removed from one ventilator tonight to the other one that simulates more natural regular breaths. We will get another look at her heart when she is switched to the other vent and see the improvements being made. Her facial twitches have subsided. She is moving her arms to pain and pushing her legs when she is hurting. The goal... Her her breathing on her own. The hospital was so awesome for her birthday. She is stylish with her toes painted from the family life centers birthday present to her, her blanket was full of balloons and her door had pretty pink banner to celebrate her birthday. Cupcakes and balloons fill the room. It isnt our ideal celebration for her birthday but we are celebrating that we are blessed enough to still have her with us. Our nurses have been the best and God has created each of these women for this specific job. There is no better place for these kids to be! Dallas.... Slept a lot today. He got up and walked to get a Popcicle and jello. That amount of activity wears him out pretty quickly and he goes back to sleep. He changed his clothes, And passed his speech test. Some of the things he says are still not completely correct or clear but he is on the road to recovery! Dallas said today several times that he doesnt like video games. For those of you who know him you are probably laughing right now. His Humor is coming back. When asked today (after numerous questions to him from the nurse) if he had any questions he replied yes, wheres my ticket out of here and another time they were waking him up to check his brain and responses and she asked his name and he yelled Dallas! Then she asked where are you and he raised his hands up and yelled IN BED!!! He would usually never yell at a stranger but after being so tired and woke Every hour to be asked this same question he have her a loud smartelic response. She found it funny and I saw my good old Dallas. We are on the road to recovery and ask that you still keep our children in your prayers.
