  4. E Every day, around the world,
    M My granddaughter's name is heard;
    M Many prayer warriors pray for her,
    A And I know GOD hears each word; yet

    J Just when hope had ebbed a bit
    A And Baby Emma's breathing still was strained;
    N Nine o'clock came on March the 5th
    A And blessings showered down like rain, for
    E Emma breathed on her own - without a vent or pain!

    S She was surrounded by so many prayers,
    T To God, whom we knew was there, and
    E Emma continued on her own, so
    W We knew God supplied the air;
    A As the good news raced around the world,
    R Rejoicing people smiled with ease
    T To know, with God's help, Emma breathes!

    EMMA JANAE STEWART,
    on your 5-month birthday, the time was right for you to breathe without the vent! Never mind having "half a heart," because we know you are "twice the fighter." Keep up the great work; God will send you a new heart when He knows that the time is right for it!
    PS...Nana Jana loves you and I am SO proud of you!

  6. I am so excited to see she is doing so great! I have been following your blog for about 3 months now and praying all the time for sweet Emma! I have a 10 month old little boy with HLHS and we also had a very rough beginning. He has had his Norwood and Glenn and a cardiac arrest. He is diagnosed Cerebral Palsy, as well. Emma and my Simon will touch so many lives with their stories of how God kept them safe from all of the things they lived through! I am so excited for you guys to have come off the vent! Next step is to leave those canulas behind (we just did 11 days ago!) and get to look on that beautiful face without the accessories! :) God is sooo great!!!

  12. Praise God from whom ALL blessing flow! Soooo happy to hear that Emma's extubation is a success. I know she is enjoying the freedom as are those who get to hold her and love on her now with much more ease.

    The pictures speak volumes. Emma is so loved and I know that has much to do with her thriving. She is a doll. Thanks for sharing a part of your family time.

    Prayers continue for the next step in the journey on which God is leading you guys.
