**UPDATE** Just got back from Aubrey's midnight feeding and found out that she is back on 25mL of oxygen. I am a little bummed, but have faith that in time she will be off for good. Being patient is the hard part for me. Please continue to pray that she keeps fighting the battle.
Tonight as I was reading, the topic was FAITH. This is something that I have been questioning over the course of the week. Should I trust these doctors, are these doctors doing all they can to help Aubrey? And yes I can say, I have chosen to trust them. Why shouldn't I trust them? God has placed them in Aubrey's life for a reason and trusting them secures the fact that I have FAITH in what God is doing in Aubrey's life.
"All things are possible to him who believes." Mark 9:23
"In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved with various trials, that the genuineness of your faith...may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ." 1 Peter 6-7
Thank you God for the faith that you have given me in the midst of these various trials. Thank you for drawing me closer to you. Thank you for your unfailing love and comfort.
***Today marked a great day of peace and steps forward for Aubrey. Tests came back that her CRP levels went down as well as her white blood cell count. Thank you Lord for continuing to answer prayers. Tonight when I went to feed Aubrey, I was also greeted with the news that she was off her oxygen. We will see how the night goes, but I have faith that God will see her through yet another test.

The picture of Aubrey in the bath looks a bit like Austin as a baby I think. I love the updates keep them coming. Keep clinging to Christ, may He continue to bring you peace and comfort in this time.
May God alone sustain you through these ups and downs! Hang in there. Can't wait to meet little Miss Aubrey!!!
I'm continuely amazed at how God has a time for everything. How great is He who puts that study of FAITH at your feet at the most critical of times. Continue to remember through the ups and downs that He has remained steadfast. He's going nowhere! That verse in I Peter was one that struck me when I have struggled. (It was actually on Lily's birth announcements) God is working in your life right now and it has not gone unnoticed. I'm still praying and believe that your little Aubrey will be coming home soon! Love you!
