On my way to the
hospital she felt so peaceful. She was sure now more than ever
that God would heal Sarah. When she arrived back at Sarah's room,
she was sleeping so peacefully, she was cool, not at all hot like she
had bee. Her fever was gone. She looked up and said, "Thank you
Lord, thank you so much." Then she laid down and tried to sleep.
The next morning
Sarah woke up early. She turned and saw her mommy laying back in
the recliner sleeping. She tried to be quiet so she wouldn't wake
her. She laid there thinking what a great day it was going to be.
'I'm four years old today and I will get to see my friends, I have
missed them for so long.' Then Susie woke up and saw Sarah sitting
up in her bed. She looked at her and smiled. "You're up
early," Susie said. "I know," said Sarah. "I'm
so excited, today is my birthday!" "I know," Susie said, "I know
you are excited but honey, the party isn't until four this afternoon."
One of the nurses
came in with Sarah's breakfast tray. There was a big balloon tied
to it that said, "Happy Birthday?" All the nurses on the floor had
signed it. Sarah giggled and said, "That's because they love me,
Mommy!" The nurse laughed and said, "We sure do, Sarah. We
hope you have a great birthday." Sarah said, "I know I will, all
my friends are coming for a tea party.. Oh, and you can come too
if you want." "Well, that's sweet of you, Sarah, and I may just do
that, but right now I have to get back to work." "Bye," said
Sarah, "And thanks for my balloon." "You are very welcome, honey."
She said as she left the room. After she was gone, Susie said,
"Lets eat this breakfast so we'll be ready to start the day."
