Celebrating 150

On Monday, January 30th Luella celebrated  150 days of seizure freedom!!
	She has blown past her previous record of 122 days set last summer! We are SOO excited for her. Of course we had to celebrate a little bit... She requested pizza so when she got home from school she helped me make some yummy pizza. (She LOVES to help in the kitchen!)

She also requested a cookie "cake"... basically a giant 14" chocolate chip and M&M cookie that I made and decorated for her! She was thrilled! SUGAR HIGH!??! (Thankfully she was smart and scraped most of the frosting off before eating.)

It's amazing to see her keep going everyday. She prays every night for God to "keep the seizures away forever".... I pray that too. I know that when that next seizure comes, she will just pick up and start the count again without missing a beat. She is so strong.

I have to say last Saturday when Jim suggested we go tubing as a family, I had a teeny tiny part of me inside that wanted to stay home and keep her safe and not risk a seizure. I knew I couldn't do that. She is enjoying life and all it has to offer and we want her to do all that she can! We went and we all had a terrific time! When the rest of us were tiring out, SHE was the one wanting to stay even longer!

Brave Luella ready to hit the hill!

Luella having a great time tubing!

Love family times like these!

We feel so grateful for these last 153 days now, and look forward to each seizure-free day Luella is granted going forward! We pray for God's will and thank you all for your continued love and support, and most importantly, your prayers!
