Thank You!!!

Wow!!! What a week. I can't begin to thank each and every one of you enough for all of your thoughts and prayers. We have been so incredibly covered in prayer, thank you for your overwhelming love and support through all of this. For those of you here in Cabo, thank you for the food, the toys for the boys and your sweet visits to the hospital or by the trailer.

The Lord's faithfulness is amazing. Above all things I pray that His name is magnified through this and that we all will grow in our faith and knowledge of Him. I firmly believe that either the Lord protected our sweet baby boy from harm or that he healed him on the way to the emergency clinic. Regardless of the method, we are unbelievably thankful that he is okay.

It is so nice to be home, I must say the hospital room began to feel pretty cramped, especially as Elias started to feel better. Chasing a 15 month old with an IV in his arm was pretty exhausting. Today was a beautiful day and Elias was so content to be able to play outside with his tractors and trucks. He is not back to walking yet but is doing very well getting around crawling. The doctor thinks that he should be walking in about a week or two.

Sending our Gratitude and Love,
Jeremiah, Shelley, Owen and Elias

Oh my goodness!! I'm so glad that Eli is doing alright. Something similar happened to a friend of mine when she was a baby, and God miraculously spared her life as well. Praise be to our merciful Father for His protection and healing.

Wow! This is just so amazing and wonderful! We're getting ready to have our 2nd little one any day and this whole experience of having little ones sure sends the empathy meter off the scale! We sure couldn't be more grateful along with you. Wow, words are difficult to explain how deep these events can touch us.

Keep the pictures and videos coming!

Lot's o' love,

The Boothe's
