Whoever Your God

I don't tend to get too religious or spiritual on here very often.  I do need to update everyone on our Church Search, as I'm happy to report it has finally come to an end and we've found a church that both Mr. Cob and I are happy attending.  But that is not what this post is about.

This post is about the power of prayer.  Which I wholeheartedly believe in.  And this post is about reaching as many people as I can to request your prayers for some friends.  We have two different friends who have babies in the hospital right now.  And they could both use some prayers and happy, love filled thoughts sent their way.

So whoever your God is, if you could add these two sweet souls and their families to your prayer list, it'd mean a lot.

Baby Ella was born last Friday a few weeks early (6.5 to be exact).  She's a little thing and is in the NICU right now.  Her mama is one of the strongest women I know, so I have no doubt that Ella is a fighter and will get to go home soon. Baby girl, we're all behind you, cheering you on!  Her mama will likely get discharged from the hospital today and so I'm sending her love too as I know it will be hard to leave without her new baby.

Baby Marco is almost 9 months old and his mom and I became friends when we were pregnant (we actually met through Ella's mom).  Marco and Lukas started daycare together and his parents have become good friends of ours over the past year.  Marco has had some health scares in the past that were pinpointed to serious food allergies.  But he's now in the hospital and the doctors don't know yet what is wrong, but they're working hard to figure it out.

I can't imagine what it is like to have your little baby in the hospital, but I know that the support of friends and family and even strangers can't hurt.  So please send these two families some love. 

And hold on tight to the ones you love a little longer than usual today.  Life is so precious.
