Super-size me
There was still one difficult thing we had to do-tell Ashley. They had a parents night out at her elementary school on Friday. Our plan was to take her out afterwards over some McDonald fries of all things and give her the basics. I explained that they found out what was going on with her from the blood they had drawn. We told her the name of what she had and the basic frame of what we knew. Much more information would come our way and as my friends so aptly said, "God is in charge." We could give her the certainty of what it was called and really that was about it. We wanted her above all else to know, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful, I know this full well."...a verse every person should have written in their heart (Psalm 139:14) . God makes no mistakes. He knew exactly what He was doing and how He was going to use it. Like I said, He has great things planned for her and I cannot wait to see this all play out. Her response??? She wanted more fries. I love kids. I love that they are nothing like adults for the most part...their worries, fears of the world, their trust. I envy them that.
