PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!!!
Auntie Veda woke up today! Thank you, Lord! Thank you for waking her up, for allowing her to be able to recognize people, breathing mostly on her own, being able to follow Dr.'s directions. The bright spot in the week! =)

this week, I'm particularly thankful for...
the above
prayer
friends
family
friends who call from Oregon, Vietnam, LA...
friends who graciously offer their help
friends who offer hugs
double vanilla rootbeer floats
the ability to downshift =)
distractions....

Lord, help me get thru this.

I was so wrapped up with the weekend's events, I forgot a few birthdays. Happy Birthday Meliss. I love you girl. Thanks for the late, cold, driveway chat. I <3 you.

Today's Uncle Parker's birthday too. Happy Birthday Uncle Parker. I hope you, Grandpa Woo, Chema, Yeh Yeh, Ria are having an awesome party in heaven.

Please Lord, let time pass quickly. I know you don't give us anything we can't handle. But right about now, it seems like it's pushing it.

Thank you everyone for your prayers, calls, encouragement, hugs, thoughts, support...we really appreciate it. Continued prayer is always appreciated, especially for my grandma. She's having a really hard time right now. Thanks.

When it rains, it pours. Please pray for our family and for Veda Pong and her family too. thanks

Thanks TAL for being the normalcy I needed this morning.

I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. God plans things at certain times in our lives because He sees the bigger picture. Even though we think the timing sucks, even tho we go through hell, even tho we have unanswered questions, God has His reasons. Even though knowing that, it still hurts, I still cry, and I still worry. But God still is right where He said He'd be-next to us. Please pray for our family right now. Thanks so much. I don't like funerals much...

title: When the Tears Fall

I've had questions, without answers
I've known sorrow, I have known pain
but there's one thing, that I'll cling to
You are faithful, Jesus You're true

when hope is lost, I'll call You saviour
when pain surrounds, I'll call You healer
when silence falls, You'll be the song within my heart

in the lone hour of my sorrow
through the darkest night of my soul
You surround me and sustain me
my defender, forevermore

when hope is lost, I'll call You saviour
when pain surrounds, I'll call You healer
when silence falls, You'll be the song within my heart

and I will praise You, I will praise You
when the tears fall, still I will sing to You
and I will praise You, Jesus praise You
through the suffering still I will sing

when hope is lost, I'll call You saviour
when pain surrounds, I'll call You healer
when silence falls, You'll be the song within my heart

oh yes, You are good to me
You've always been good to me
so trustworthy

when hope is lost, I'll call You saviour
when pain surrounds, I'll call You healer
when silence falls, You'll be the song within my heart
and I will praise You, and I will praise You
when the tears fall, still I will sing to You (I will sing to You)
I will praise You, Jesus praise You
through the suffering still I will sing

how faithful and true
sustain me through and through
You are hope and truth
You must bring a little water
You must bring a little water
in the lone hour of my sorrow
who springs never fail
be faithful and true
like a spring it never fails
you're my spring never fails
