On the floor next to me was Constance. Above her on the smaller couch was where Ruby Mei was asleep. My parent's bedroom was just 5 steps away. And across the dining room table in the TV room was where Fatu, Misi, Vince and little Misi were all sleeping. Everyone was spread out on floors or couches. There were pillows and blankets of all kind that had been brought out. This home is filled with love. It is overflowing. I am so grateful for our family and for having my parents and siblings to lean on when my faith and hope start to waver. I have a testimony of prayer and of the plan of salvation. Everything now is in the Lord's hands. Pray for our sweet Lauren. From our family to yours- ofa atu. Thank you.

On My Knees
Right after I got off the phone with Sila I dropped to my knees and plead to my Father in Heaven in prayer. As I waited in the airport I prayed. Throughout my flight I prayed. I'm not sure if I have ever prayed so much before. I got on my knees before I went to sleep on my Mom's couch last night and woke up the next day and got back in that same position. Prayers at the hospital. Last night me and Sten said a prayer before bed and she asked if she could say it. This morning I prayed with my Mom & Dad before my mom left to work. And a couple hours later I bowed my head as my Dad gave Vince a blessing. Text messages have been continually coming through my phone asking how everything's going and how they can help. You can help by saying a prayer for our sweet Rennie. Whether it be on your knees or a little prayer in your heart for her. I looked up after our prayer with my mom and Dad and seen this picture
