Today I was able to give David a bath! He did quite well considering how little he is! I also got to hold him again, they call it kangaroo care. We should be able to do this once a day, everyday, as long as he can tolerate it. I thank my God for every special moment.
He is resting good, but is continuing to have some oxygen level drops (de-sats) from time to time. Continue to pray for this. They will have prelim results on where the infection is tomorrow. Thank you for your continued support and prayer!
PS - David had a few bowel movements!!! YIPPEE! His tummy is responding well to feedings! Praise be to God!
Quote from my caalendea: I believe in the sun even when it's not shining. I believe in love, even when I'm alone. I believe in God even when He is silent. Trust in God in the dark till the llight returns.

I pray for this supernatural outpouring of His love to continue to meet every need for you, Joel, Anna, and David!
Awesome news! Glad David is able to be held, bathed and even pooping! We're praying the Lord will grant your heart's desire!
