Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah. I KNEW it would be a girl. I just knew it! Lovely, lovely news, well done CD (and Mr Dippy too!)

NSFN - thinking of you/praying for you.

PandaG · 01/05/2007 11:18

This is a quick C and P from the previous thread - don't think Rosey has realised we ghave moved!

From Roseylea
Hi, this is a quick SOS pryer request fromme please!

I am having a really bad day with the Crohns. I'll spare you the gory details (!) but I am in so much pain . I have got to take dd to school, then ds to preschool, then I've got to go to work, there is so much housework to do after work, and today just feels like an impossible mountain I've got to climb.

There is a healing service at church tonight and I would really like to go. PLease pray that I'd be able to! Like NSFN I live a bit of a distance from our church so I need to drive about 20 mins to get there. Please could you pray that God's grace would be sufficient for me today, his strength made perfect in my weakness, and that he would reach out and touch me with healing power.

Sorry to go on but this is such a horrible thing. THank you lovely ladies!

ZipadiSuzy · 01/05/2007 14:10

Having a rubbish day, twins very tiring with tantrums, either one or the other, they seem to take it in turns! thats me not them!!!!! makes me feel a bad mummy, please god give me a little patience, I'm tired , I've got a migraine and I have to go to work tonight! (sorry if I sound mardy)

Prayers roseylea for your bad attack of Chrohns, I hope you get through the long day, and get the chance to go to the healing service tonight, you deserve it!

fannyannie · 01/05/2007 14:12

ZipadiSuzy · 01/05/2007 14:13

ZipadiSuzy · 01/05/2007 14:19

Fannyannie - Oh sweetheart, there must be somtheing in the water today, my prayers are there for you, how rude of that lady.

fannyannie · 01/05/2007 14:20

ZipadiSuzy · 01/05/2007 14:23

Thanks fanny, I tried that one, caused a major meltdown!

Anyway, I think my prayer has just been answered, thank you lord, the dts have fallen asleep, they must have been tired, cause they don't have daytime naps anymore.

mufti · 01/05/2007 15:17

aah , i've tried putting a photo on, limited time only , testing to see if its worked , ds opening his first easter egg..

mufti · 01/05/2007 15:20

didnt work

roseylea · 01/05/2007 15:41

Thanks Panda - yes you are right, I'hadn't cottoned on to the new thread! (Now there's a metaphor!!)

And a huge huge congratulations to CD and her new baby girl! How wonderful!!!!

And Mary! Are you allowed to tell us the names? Or are you just winding us up?!?

THnaks to all for praying today. Work was actually really good, the kids were lovely and made me laugh and I just had a real happiness and a sense of making a difference. Isn't it funny how so often it's when we feel really weak that God just turns up and makes those days special?

It would be so good for me to get to the healing service later. If you can, could you please say a quick prayer that I am able to go? Thanks!

MaryBS · 01/05/2007 16:03

I'm not sure its my place to tell... but yes I DO know the names... I'll text CD, but I'm sure she'll be on soon to tell you herself!
