Happy 1st Birthday to my Crawler!

My pastor in DC always taught his congregation to be specific with
prayers. To ask for miraculous things in great detail. I'll never forget
some of his stories that grew my faith and inspired me to start
praying like that. Along Lily Kate's journey I've been on my knees asking for specific miracles simply because I've felt called to do so. My first big request was "Lord please help Lily Kate to crawl by 11 months." I thought I was going to wake up on December 4 (when she turned 11 months) and find her crawling in her crib. But my timing is not His timing. Instead she crawled for the first time on January 1, 2013 and I couldn't have been more thrilled and humbled by the God who listens and answers our prayers! You see, Lily Kate did not turn 12 months until January 4, 2013 so technically she was within 11 months of age. Unbelievable. But really its not unbelievable. I've witnessed so many miracles over these past few months that I've lost count. My next very bold prayer is that she would walk by 18 months. I hope you'll join us in praying for that miracle. He is faithful whether He answers "yes" or "not yet". Move over toddlers. Lily Kate Comstock is on the move!
