A million thanks for all the prayers, e-mails and concerns. My inbox is loaded down and I will try to catch up when time permits. Please forgive the delays. I appreciate each and every one of you.
Parker is improving, but far from 100%. He is still on a liquidy diet and can't chew yet. We are hoping that he will be able to chew by the weekend, but only time will tell. For the first time in 3 nights, he slept through the night last night without crying most of the night. Praise God! His face is still puffy and swollen, but the doctor said it could be like that for another 10 days or so. He is talking and smiling now.
John is preaching tomorrow for the first time. It was suppose to be Tuesday, but they had a scheduling conflict. I am leading my first Bible-study tomorrow in Spanish. My friend Jenny translated it into to Spanish for me and saved me about 5 hours of work. And now I can make cupcakes with my kids! :) Of course, I still have to facilitate it, decipher through what they are saying and give the right response - all in a foreign tongue! Yikes! Preaching seems more appealing b/c no one is responding to what you are saying.
Anyway, I've been very unmotivated to blog lately - as you might have noticed. :)

Hi,
I have been out of touch for a couple of days. I am praying for you Parker. You are a very brave boy!
Love, Benjamin and Nathan's Grannie Rains
I'm so glad that your friend took that load off your shoulders- what a blessing. I have been praying for little Parker :) Love you all!

I just heard about what happened to Parker. It made me really sad to think about him in all of that pain. I love him so much, and I literally had a picture in my mind from your description of what happened, and it horrified me. I'm so grateful that he's doing better and that God worked everything out with the doctors. You guys are extremely blessed that although you're in the missions field (in a place far from home and comfort), God has still placed people around you and in your lives who were able to take care of this situation. Had you been somewhere else (another country or city), he still might not have been able to have even seen a doctor yet. Jesus is so good, and he's making all the provisions to ensure that you guys (the entire Pham family) are protected by His righteous right hand at all times! Please tell Parker I love him so much and I miss him; also, that I'm so proud of him for being such a big boy and being so brave during all the events that transpired over the past couple of days! I LOVE ALL OF YOU!
