God's Grace is enough

Hello friends! Our Lord keeps us in awe! We are continuing to see His work in everything daily.

Jace is "penciled" in for his second surgery on November 14, 2013. We are waiting to hear about when the first surgery might be scheduled. They said that he would go in for the first surgery two weeks before the second surgery, which puts us in Baltimore around October 31. All of these dates are pending if the insurance can come to terms with the negotiations with Hopkins. So we sit and wait:)
Something else that is happening in our lives, Ian will start AWANA on Wednesday! We can't believe he is old enough to be a Cubbie:) Can't wait to hear all about his first night! Our big three year old:)

We have been in prayer about the expenses and how God was going to work this out, only to find out last week that He has been working on it since MAY!!! God put this on the hearts of Suzanne's nephew and wife in MAY! God already was working on His plan:) Love HIM! Suzanne's nephew, Alex and his wife, Audrey took over Suzanne's candle company in Indiana a few years ago. The company's name is Simple Glow. They have been doing an awesome job with creating the candles and making it a great business. They are offering candles, in many fragrances, and half of the proceeds are going to go toward expenses to help us while we are in Baltimore. Housing, meals, transportation and anything else that we might be in need of during our stay. We are so grateful for our wonderful family and friends who take action when God says, "Go"! Here is the link for the fundraiser http://www.simpleglowcandleco.com/jace.html 

We have also created a fundraiser page here on the blog for donations that will help fund our expenses while we are staying at Johns Hopkins.  http://thewakleyfamily.blogspot.com/p/fundraiser-for-jace.html
