In the early morning hours of Thursday, Lydia, Korrie, baby Luke and I convened at Arkansas Children's hospital overlooking Little Rock's capital building. I know that many of you were praying with us for Jubilee during her surgery and I'm happy to report that all went very well. From Korrie's homemade cinnamon rolls, to Lydia's powerful intercession, to Kayla's stellar mothering, to Jubilee's strength of spirit and resilience, it was all just really sweet.
Light caught Kayla's hazel eyes as she unloaded news and stories about what has been going on with her family and their plans for the future. We got caught up on a lot of things in that waiting room. That Dos Equis guy who claims to be the most interesting man in the world? He ain't got nothin' on Kayla.
I wish I had gotten a picture of Jubilee in her little yellow scrubs with that smile of hers that made all the doctors and nurses go completely ga-ga, but I guess I'll have to wait until June when I see them again to capture the smile. I didn't have my camera pre-op.
But we
were able to lay hands on her sweet self and her momma and pray before they whisked her away.
Again, all went well and aside from a little upset stomach, it just went smashingly. I think little Jubilee is proving to be just as strong and beautiful as her momma.
Strong and beautiful. Beautiful and strong indeed.

Oh that was a smashing post. And your ability to capture hearts with pictures is even better. I love it and love you friend. And as I said last night to John- "It was worth it."
I am on Shari's iPad trying to tap into the world wide web from the farm. We don't even have tv out here!
Anyway, I LOVE your sweet words and I LOVE these pics (going to have to steal them) and I will live all my days and rarely feel as loved as you all made me feel this week in little rock.
Thank you. For all of it.
Constantly,
Kayla
