Too precious--MUST SHARE! 7/18/2011 8:49:50 AM
I have often written about Esa, who as a baby, was found to have Retinoblastoma, a cancer in her eyes. Esa is now a beautiful young lady 3 or 4--not sure. Here's her daddy's comments about a recent experience with Esa, plus his prayer request for her coming exam. It's another Saint Jude week for us. Esa has been doing so great!! Everyday I pray that she will have a long and healthy life with two eyes that can see all the beauty that God created. She is really such an amazing girl. I lead worship for the youth at our church and my girls came with me last night. Esa was dancing and singing and she brought her marracas to help me with the music. I was watching her while is was playing and singing and she was smiling at me with such a love that I will never forget that look she gave me. After we were done she said,"Daddy. i'm so proud of you for your music." I wanted to cry. She is so special to me.
Her hair is getting so ridiculously long, that we call her Rapunzel, she loves that movie so it makes her happy to hear us call her that. She is so curious about Jesus and Bible stories. Every morning Terise does a Bible story with the girls at breakfast and Esa loves hearing about the people in the Bible.
I just wanted to write and let you all know that she will be having her EUA this week. So please, please pray for a healthy stable eye exam for her. No new tumors, no re-occurances, no scaring and no bleeding. Just two healthy, stable eyes!! I'll update Wednesday after we find out.
