Miracle

Last night we had our own little miracle. Taiya has a yucky cold that came on suddenly last night complete with fever and incessant coughing. It was so bad that she couldn't sleep, waking up fitfully until she finally ended up in our bed at about 1:00 a.m. and then proceeded to cough almost continuously for an hour from about 2:00 to 3:00 a.m. We were pretty much at our wits ends!! Nothing was helping, she was miserable and not sleeping and neither were we. Finally, at 3:00 a.m. Heber gave her a blessing and no joke, immediately after he finished she stopped coughing. She only coughed a few more times sporadically and then fell into a peaceful sleep for the first time that night until 8:00 the next morning. Some may think it was a coincidence, but I know it was our own miracle. My testimony was strengthened and I am so grateful for a wonderful husband who is worthy to bless our baby especially when it is 3:00 in the morning!

When I first saw the posting "Miracle" I thought baby born? However, this was a very cool miracle too.

I thought the same as Tessa. BABY!! I keep looking to see if he has arrived. Can't wait. Just think a boy...a boy that will someday be able to preform miracles too!

I enjoyed this post. It is always nice to hear testimony builders!
