got hope?...team kelly expects a miracle!

Chemo has kicked kelly down again this go round...she is dehydrated again...so more IVs and more time spent in the chemo lounge. While she'd rather be home, He is blessing her by nurses and other patients with every visit. We have another favorite nurse...miss crystal. She loves our team kelly t-shirts...especially the "expect a miracle" part of the shirt. To fill you in on why that little saying is on the sleeve...uncle kevin gave us girls in the family a james avery charm that says "expect a miracle"...we all wear them every day. So miss crystal sang to kelly tuesday as she closed the chemo lounge down. She sang softly in a quiet room in the midst of tornadoes and thunder and rain...a song her husband sings to her about expecting miracles. It moved kelly...brought her to tears and she felt His Presence in that room. He does know our needs, even when we don't.

Sweet crystal and precious tammy (and the guy playing a guitar in the chemo lounge) are lifting kelly up. All the TEAM KELLY shirts being worn around the country are giving her the encouragement to fight! The Stix and the Heat baseball teams that prayed on the pitchers mound and proudly played in their TEAM KELLY jerseys have brought so much happy to her sweet smiling face. Ella's many moms who showed up at her play...when kelly couldn't...to clap for her baby girl...she can't even begin to express her gratitude. It is so incredible what God is doing in kelly's life with these loving and generous Christ-like friends. Our papa, pastor larry, says there is no greater joy for Him, than seeing His children be like Christ. I know His heart is pleased at the kindness of TEAM KELLY!

Please pray this:

1. Thank Him for blessings in the chemo lounge

2. Thank Him for TEAM KELLY cheering her on at the ballpark

3. Thank Him for sweet Ella who didn't freak out about mommy missing her play at school

4. Pray for strength and endurance...for the shot to boost her energy this Easter weekend

5. For her to stay nourished and hydrated

6. For jason, will, ben, sam and ella...always

oh yeah...if you are sporting your TEAM KELLY shirt around town...send me a pic...i'm sure she would love to see how present we are all over the world!
