Update

Ok, I am just giving an update on my dad's hand....

BUT its a GOOD REPORT!  So far everything is looking great. (But I didn't expect anything less) He is using it and moving it just fine, and as far as I know he has just as much flexibility in it as in the other hand. It's still very tender, but that is with any "ouchie"! We are still praying for the numbness to decrease and no pain at all. Honestly, he said he hasn't had much pain anyway, which is awesome! Everything is healing well, and we are standing that it is HEALED PERFECTLY in Jesus name! God is so GOOD and so FAITHFUL! :)

Working hard to get there...

Yes, that is correct. We have been working sooo hard to get the daycare close to open. Paint is going up on the walls, we are still deciding on flooring, but the visions and plans are being put together and I am very excited about them.

A minor (ok somewhat major) setback, but I believe it's going to be an awesome testimony. Dad was working on some ducts for the air, and a piece of sheet metal fell and cut his hand pretty deep. They spent a while last night in the ER and left with the doctor telling them that he would have to have surgery because he had cut one of the major tendons and it had retracted back into his arm. (It was either the one that opens or the one that closes his hand.) HOWEVER, he went today to a consult with a surgeon and left their with the doctor telling him that surgery MAY NOT have to happen. The surgeon told dad that since he could move his thumb maybe it didn't cut the tendon completely in half. Well, I believe the difference in last night and this afternoon is simply SUPERNATURAL!!  We prayed and agreed for complete healing and restoration to all of the muscles, tendons, ligaments, veins, cells, and nerves. You name it and it was covered by prayer and covered with the blood last night!! I simply believe that "the word is working on our behalf to affect a healing and a cure!!" God always watches over His word to make sure it comes to pass (Jeremiah 1:12), and He wouldn't have died for our healing if we couldn't believe it and receive it!! So, if you are reading this... Dad goes back in 2 weeks for a final decision/check up to decide if it will be fine and heal on its own, or if he will have to have surgery. Agree with us that what has already been started will be finished, supernaturally. (No long term effects because what God takes care of, He completes with perfection. We do not serve a half way God!!)  God is bigger!! He can and we know He WILL!!

Other than that, we are just counting down the days until school is out, and working every chance we get at the center. I can't wait to have a post that says we are finished will all kinds of pics to share!!  :)
