i've heard a lot of stories about miraculous things happening to small children, babies, and infants. i know 3 right off the top of my head. one of them is the story of my neice. i have two neices, they're twins. well one of them, braelyn, was diagnosed with this genetic disorder. you could see this mass on the back of her neck on pictures from the sonograms. well, my family prayed that she would be healed. the doctor advised my sister to abort the pregnancy and try again. she adamantly refused. well it turned out, through many faithful prayers (thanks to the great people at FRC Sawgrass) that the disorder was gone. there was no trace of it, and now braelyn is perfectly healthy.
we were all thankful, but i always felt that God would come through during that ordeal. i don't know why, but it seems i have a lot more faith in miracles when it involves babies.
anyways, i tell you that story to tell you this story. i came across a verse that shed a little light on the subject. Psalms 8:2 says, "You have taught children and infants to tell of your strength, silencing your enemies and all who oppose you."
i just thought that was pretty cool.

camp
i just got back from middle school camp. it was a long drive, but well worth it. the kids were pushed to their limits in all the games and had fight through their want to quit. the sessions were entertaining, and had some real thought provoking moments. we even had about 10 kids get baptized. overall, i think it went great. it was definitely something to build on.
i came home and found out that my sister had some complications and was in the hospital. it was much more serious than i was led to believe, but kelly is alright now. that was a scary moment for all of us. i donated some blood for her, and went to visit her in the hospital. she seems to be a little better, but is still weak, and should be in there until at least monday.
it has been an extremely stressful week with kelly's complications, having to watch the babies, big decisions weighing me down, and having no sleep through it all. now i'm turning around and going to high school camp. just keep me and my family in your prayers. thank you.

Its a Girl! x 2
today i was closing, and after work i stopped by my buddy's birthday party. except, i had to rush out because i got a call from my mom saying my sister was in labor. so i rushed home and from there went to the hospital.
we chilled in the lobby for a few minutes until drew came and took us past the locked door, into the back area (i don't know what its called, i'm not up on hospital lingo, maybe i should watch greys anatomy).
then, the doctors did the c section on kelly around 3 am, and pulled out the babies. Kayla Mackenzie Robinson (formerly known as Alpha or baby A) and Braelyn Elizabeth Robinson (Bravo or baby B) both came out at about 5 lbs each.
i caught a glimpse of them as they were rolled out to the NIQUE (once again, i don't know how to spell this stuff). drew went with them to name them and get their identification straight.
then i got a chance to see kelly for a second but she was out of it. after that i got kicked back out to the lobby. so i killed the time by trying to chat with the spanish speaking security guard, it was kind of hard cause he spoke very little english and i speak very little spanish and he was distracted by one of those crazy spanish shows with a lady in a short skirt and a guy with a lot of whistles... but im getting off topic.
drew came back out and pulled in my dad to go see the babies (my mom was with kelly) then eventually i got to go see kelly. apparently only grandparents get to go visit the premie babies. but after the drugs hit kel, and she rambled on about red gatorade, she eventually fell asleep and we left.
now i'm home writing this blog... sorry if it was wordy, i'm a little tired and a little excited.
but praise the Lord, i got two neices.

what up?
hey guys, just wanted to update yall on everything going on lately. it hasnt been anything real special, but life is good. school is going great, and i just signed up to dual enroll next semester, which means i get out every day at 10:45!(im sure shannon is rolling her eyes as she reads that) score. i have class at BCC two nights a week though. but thats alright, definitely worth it. Christmas break is right around the corner, and im stoked. i gotta finish gettin gifts tomorrow before church. speaking of church, we just had a sawgrass student ministry Christmas party. it was awesome, it was at one of my boy's, Caprio's, house. it was a perfect place for the party, plenty of room, we hooked up the 360, the PS3, and the Wii they had over there, played some games, ate some pizza, passed out some gifts, it was pretty sweet. oh yeah, and KJ 52 called, apparently Caprio's dad knows him. how crazy is that? but it was a lot of fun but as always a lot of work, but i was glad to do it. we had a good turn out. i'm really stoked for the break coming up, and the growth of our ministry. and to top it all off my sister's babies are perfectly healthy. they had some problems last week, but the specialist found no trace of it. definitely answered prayer. so thanks to everybody whos been praying, please keep praying, and i want you to know i love all of you.
