 "Oh yes! God gives Goodness and Beauty; 
      our land responds with Bounty and Blessing."  
                                                         ~ Psalm 85:12

     Last night I had such a wonderful opportunity to go and worship at a prison.  What a blessing that was, the worship was awesome and God was in the place.  I was able to give Kari's testimony, according to my perspective of course, but what a blessing to be reminded of what could have been and how God is my Solid Rock! I am believing that God is doing great things, because He has inmates praying for her.  I know that they know how it feels to be unable to do the things that you are used to!  
She is finally have having her angiogram, we just got word that that it has actually begun.  They said that it should only take a hour and it isn't supposed to be as invasive as the procedure before, Praise God.  
      She has really had some great days lately.  Yesterday evening she fed herself, with a little difficulty, but she actually tried and my mom feels she ate a little more than she would have if we had tried to feed her.  Today she actually walked more than she had, a bit wobbly, but she walked about 25 feet this morning and reached up to grab a few things.  My mom got to witness it all...she said that she was so tired from the walk that she tried to fuss about having to grab something and tried to manipulate my mom to get it instead.  We are encouraging her now to try to do everything like she had to do for gymnastics. 
      She was actually sitting a chair when I came in at 1pm to see her, she was so proud of herself and tried to show my dad that she could pull the lever to sit upright.  He told her he didn't need to see, because he didn't know what might happen next and she said, "Oh Dad that's not nice."  It's kinda funny because she really seems to be able to pick up on family subtleties and knows what we're saying when we're not saying it...that's really exciting!  I'll let you guys know how the procedure.  I know that God is going to give beautiful things and use this to bless Kari's life so she will continue to be a living testimony!
Thank you for praying! 
Be blessed
