"You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother's womb. I praise you, so wonderfully you made me; wonderful are your works! My very self you knew; my bones were not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, fashioned as in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes foresaw my actions; in your book all are written down; my days were shaped before one came to be.
How precious to me are your designs, O God..."
~Psalm 139: 13-17

Joe was absent from the hospital for a couple of days again because of a cold, but now he's back and here's a couple of nice photos of the two of them. Here they are cuddling and holding hands.
Sara and Joe, Angie passed along your blog address! Our baby is as far along as Maria and I can't even tell you how amazing it is to watch her grow and think about our baby growing being the same size. The picture of Maria's hand holding Joe's finger is priceless and precious. Our prayers continue to be with you all! Love, Julie (and Corey) Ferarro :)
