One of the children in the Project...

[IdaBriggs]

Just "crawled" 15 feet On Her Own.

Five years old. Never expected to be "independently mobile." Two months into the Project, she decided she needed to ask Daddy for a snack, and "crawled" on her own to him to discuss her "need" for a pudding cup.

Her Mommy is in tears. I am in tears.

It looks like the beginning of very good things for this child.

At the risk of offending people with different beliefs, all I can say is "Thank you, God! Thank you, God! Thank you, God! Amen."

2. Micronutrients. Preemie child / very deficient.

Also known as trace minerals.

Was just having a moment earlier - the kind where you go, YES, this is why I am working so hard - for these moments.

I am kind of super tired! Lol. Kind of keeps my problems in perspective.

My five year olds - well, I have a lot to be thankful for - and these parents really remind me of that.

3. wonderful news.

5. It is.

It isn't working for all of them - 83% at the moment - but for the ones it is helping, major moments. So much more work to do in this investigation. It has been non-stop. And I am always behind on something.

The moms have been awesome, though. They seem to take turns "tag teaming me" for those days when I am ready to give up with good news. I have learned words I never knew existed, and then they have to explain to me why it is significant.

It feels like being part of a miracle story.
