Heart as Big as a Whale

This last week has been a difficult one.  We learned that N's mom broke her hip and had to have surgery.  She's not known to do very well recovering from surgery, so this was something that concerned us greatly.  There was talk of having to use pins/rods/screws or a possible hip replacement.  They were going in blind. 

As soon as we learned this, Zoe asked us to pray because when Jesus puts his hand on someone, they are healed!  She prayed for that, which warms this mamma's heart.

Because of all the concern with the surgery, N is having a hard time being alone and not there!  He's a fixer when it comes to things and even though he couldn't fix her hip, he'd want to be there to fix whatever he could.  It was very hard to be separated from us and from his mom. 

Last night, Zoe was laying on the couch, with her feet kicked up behind her and called N no less than three times in a row.  Just to tell him that she loved him.

I'm positive she has no clue how tender she is.  When any of us needs a little reminder of how loved we are, she's eager to demonstrate that, whether it's seen or not.  She's my little reminder of who I need to be more often than I am!
