I've never been one to share lots of chain emails, start them, or really think about the "prayer" emails that come my way. Today has changed all of that. Today a beautiful blonde 4 year old girl named Ella was diagonosed with a cancerous brain tumor on the stem of her brain. Her brother was in Taylor's class last year, and we have been carpooling for a couple of years with this family. They live in my moms neighborhood and are just the nicest family. I thought i'd blog about it today, ask everyone to take a minute of thier time and say a prayer for Ella. They can not operate, and are going to try chemo. I had to have a conversation with my girls this afternoon on the way home from school, as Morgan asked what a "brain tube" was, today at school they gathered all the classes and said a prayer for Ella. I just can't imagine what the parents are going thru, please pray for their strength to continue, and for her older brother, Jack, to understand too. Jack will make his first communion this Saturday.

Our Bible study meets tomorrow night - Ella will be lifted up in prayer.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
Philippians 4:6
