From Laura:
“The puppies, the puppies…where are the 15 puppies” is now what I hear in my sleep. Austin has the whole 101 dalmations movie stuck in his head and its been stuck there for four weeks now! Yes, he has been repeating the movie since I let him watch it four weeks ago. My goal right now is to figure out what in the world makes him hang on to some movies and keep replaying and (out loud repeating) them over and over, while he can see other things and not care…pray that God gives me the wisdom for this specific problem. Also, please pray for me to be given an extra portion of strength…I am thanking the Lord that I did not have to shovel snow last week!! I love you all and wish I could hug each of you!

Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The Everlasting God, the LORD,
the Creator of the ends of the earth
Does not become weary or tired.
His understanding is inscrutable.
He gives strength to the weary,
And to him who lacks might He increases power. Though youths grow weary and tired,
And vigorous young men stumble badly,
Yet those who wait for the LORD
Will gain new strength;
They will mount up with wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired,
They will walk and not become weary.
Isaiah 40:28-31
