A Day with Baby Dominic

Great Aunt Sue invited us for a visit so we could play with baby Dominic. We decided that Nicholas could share some of his 'baby' toys with his new cousin, so I brought up some that have been packed away for a while. You would have thought they were Nicholas' long lost best friends with how excited he was to see these toys...

...until I started to repeat that we were bringing them to baby Dominic - then he started to look a little disturbed.

While at Aunt Sue's, Nicholas saw the longest telephone cord ever...and developed a little game with it.

He was one tired boy on the way home - asleep even before we were out of Oswego! Thanks for having us Aunt Sue & Uncle Charlie. We loved seeing all of Dominic's rolls, but sad we never got a picture of the 2 boys together!

Healing prayer for William

God of all creation, you who spoke a simple command and brought forth light from the darkness, I call upon you now to send forth your miracle-working power into every aspect of William's being. In the same way that you spoke unto the dust of the ground when you created humankind in your own image, I ask you to send forth your healing power into William's body. Send forth your Word and command every part of William's body to come under complete and perfect health, strength, balance and harmony.

It is through you that William lives. With every breath he takes, he lives under your life-giving grace. I ask you to touch him now with the same miracle-working power that you used when you fashioned him inside his mother's womb. As surely as you have created William in you image and likeness, I believe that you can also recreate him now and restore him to health.

Please fill him with your healing power. Mend all that is broken; remove all sickness and disease from William's body.

Let the warmth of your healing love flood his entire being, so that his body may function whole, complete and renewed in your perfect health. I ask this, humbly, through my Lord, Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
