Hi Everyone,

It's 10am Tuesday, March 28 and Isaac and Rachel are now 22 weeks old. Thank you Lord. There were moments last night when I wasn't sure we'd be able see this day together. It doesn't look like Dr. Sakamoto will be able to make it to the hospital today but I'm almost glad because it is clear to us anyway that He's the one who has gotten us this far and that He's the only one who can take us all the way if that is His will.

I don't know if everyone knows but I'm sort of a red neck and therefore a big country music fan and I played the song, "Jesus Take the Wheel", for Sonia the other week as I thought the lyrics were really touching. We play pretty often (Sonia is a closet country music aficionado as well). You may have heard it as it is currently very popular. In any event, here are the lyrics:

She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
On a snow white Christmas Eve
Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy with the baby in the backseat
Fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and gasoline
It been a long hard year
She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention
She was going way to fast
Before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
She didn't even have time to cry
She was sooo scared
She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this all on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel

It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder
And the car came to a stop
She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat sleeping like a rock
And for the first time in a long time
She bowed her head to pray
She said I'm sorry for the way
I've been living my life
I know I've got to change
So from now on tonight

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this all my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on

Oh, Jesus take the wheel
Oh, I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
From this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel
Oh, take it, take it from me
Oh, why, oh

I hope you guys don't mind, but we'll probably post the lyrics to a couple of other songs that we have really enjoyed this past month.

Thanks again for your prayers and support.

Blessings,

Jong
