I don't quite remember seeing a post by Johanna announcing Sammie's arrival in the family, but...Johanna and I exchanged several emails during that very exciting time, and I know Jessica went to China to adopt Samantha some time in December...so its been around 5 months now.

Little Sammie, I continue to pray for you. Please get better soon.

Dear God, You are the most Merciful, the most Compassionate. The lives and health of all of us are in none but Your Hands. It is in Your mercy and grace that we enjoy good health. Only You have the power to turn an illness into good health. In Your mercy and grace, Dear God, we ask you to please restore little Samantha's health. Please have mercy on this little girl, and on her family. Please God, please, protect Samantha's limbs, and please restore her health completely. Grant strength and patience to her family, and please shower all your love and mercy on them at this difficult time. Dear God, please, forgive us for our mistakes, and accept our prayers. Amen.
