This is #1,000! Isn't that crazy?? What is even crazier is that my blog is going to be reaching 100,000 hits in the next few days. Insane!! Thank you guys for sticking with me and for loving my girl. It means so much to us to have so many people praying for Abby, cheering her on, and celebrating with us when she hits a milestone!
To celebrate the 1,000th post and the 100,000th hit, I'm going to do a little giveaway! I have some LOCK & LOCK products for one lucky reader!! You will receive a teal-lid large box (it's called a lunch box, but it can be used just as a regular storage container), a small round, and two small rectangulars. You'll also get a water bottle! If you're not local, no worries! I'll mail it to ya!! :)
**Both of these L&L products were purchased by me. I received no reimbursement for doing this giveaway. I just wanted to have a little fun and do something nice as a way of saying thanks for putting up with me! :)
Alllllllll you have to do to be part of this giveaway is to leave a little comment telling me an interesting tidbit you've learned about our family from the blog. Just please make sure you leave it on this post...not on Facebook. I'm doing the random number generator to determine a winner and need all of the comments to be in one place. Comments left on Facebook won't count. :(
One comment per person, please! Naturally, you have to include your name in your comment in order for it to count. If you do it as "anonymous," just make sure you sign your name! You can also tweet about the contest, post the contest on your blog or Facebook, etc. Each time you do, post another comment on here telling me what you did, with links if possible, for an extra chance to win!! (If you tweet about it, put it on your blog, and post it on Facebook, be sure to enter it in as 3 different comments so that you get 3 chances to win!)
The comments will close on Tuesday at 10:00 p.m. After that, I will do the random number generator to determine a winner! :)
Yay! I hope we get lots of entries!! (If not, I'm going to feel totally insecure, so please help me out and leave a comment!)

This journey with Abby has reminded me just how powerful prayer is. Abby's original prognosis seemed so grim. It broke my heart to think of the dire possibilities. What a turnaround. I truly believe it is a result of your devotion and the Army of prayer warriors she has pulling for her. Your faith is amazing and contagious!!!!

I have learned three things!
1. Caleb is an awesome big brother and has a great sense of humor.
2. Prayers of the little ones are answered as I know many mommies prayed and are still praying with their little ones for Abby's health and wellbeing.
3. Thanks to the support of God, friends, family, and a church community, you are truely a witness of God's faithfulnes.

Thanks so much for all that you share in your blogs. Each day when I read it, I see your and your families faith shinning through in all that you say. It has been wonderful to read about Abby's progress. There are many praying for her and it is evident God is answering those prayers.

I have learned that Our God is SOOO Big! I always knew this, but through your family, I was able to experience it. Abby is a strong, beautiful little girl. I am so glad that I can “visit” with your family through your blog. Caleb is a wonderful brother. He is so funny too. I will miss seeing your smiling face at school this year, but I am happy you have a job that works well with your family.

--It has been a joy and a great encouragement to "watch" you and Matt face dire news with faith, prayer, tears, and determination, and to see what God has done to heal Abby. I always want to read to see what God is up to next!
--I would have LOVED to have you as my teacher. If you are this creative with a blog, I'll bet you are fabulous with helping others learn.
--Personally, I've learned how to respond (and unfortunately, how not to respond) to someone who is facing challenging circumstances, and to someone with disabilities (not "normal", as if such a thing actually existed anyway).
--Most of all, I've learned the power of keeping up your sense of humor!
Keep blogging!
