I am a 42 year old mother of three. I just recently got remarried to a wonderful man with a true heart for the Lord. I have been so blessed. I can't seem to turn around without finding another reason to praise and thank God for His wonders.My grandson, Jacob, will turn one year old June 22nd and every day brings new happiness.
Lord, Our days are long and our schedules are full. You said when we are weary we can come to you and you will give us rest. So we come to you now and ask you to... Renew our spirits. Restore our strength. Refresh our hearts. Thank You for being the source of all we need to do everything You have called us to do. Wherever we go, and whatever we face today, may we live in Your presence because that is the only place we can truly be rejuvenated. Amen.
Friends make every day sunny!
Thanks for your ray of friendship!
Just thinking of you…
and hoping to bring a smile to your day…
and remind you how special you are to me!
Hugs~

Mila had a bladder infection, which caused
her decline. She's on antibiotics and is doing
better now, eating and drinking more.
FROM ANDI---
Today is a really good day. Mila rested up last night after a day at visitation. I was checking the journal we send back and forth to update and note for Hospice and she was only given a 50 minute nap. By the time I got her home she was fast asleep at 7 PM and slept for 13 full hours. The best thing is rest for her right now. Her body needs it, and I know she is uncomfortable. I am going to have Hospice check her again this week and see if there is something more we can do for the lingering pain. It is up and down with Mila. I worry that if she gets worn out, it will start to take a toll on her. She was really happy last night to be home. "I AM HOME!!" is all she said over and over. I only hope we level out again and it is more comfortable very soon. There is just something there and maybe that is the decline and it may not get back to what we were at. All I know is there is a comfort here. Being home with her and having this wonderful time we are blessed with fills my heart! I love her. Thank you all for your prayers, thoughts and comments. It brightens our days and brings smiles to our faces!! She is one strong little Angel!!
I have been written many times about where to send donations the past few days. You can send any help made out to MILA PHILLIPS FUND @ P.O. BOX 1677 Gilbert AZ 85299 or we have a pay pal set up for Mila's fund as well. It is under the E-mail account of Blondie79@cox.net Mila loves all the gifts you have sent and the cards/stickers. We have so many things for her now and I do not want to offend but with how Mila is doing, I can only say to not send gifts at this time. I hope to only have great news soon.....
We are happy today watching Winnie the Pooh....and just loving each other!!
Take care....loves to all.
Andi and Miss Mila

FROM SHER---
Even with all the pain issues we have had in the last week, our little Mila never fails to tell me....happy Nana, happy. Yesterday after her bath, we painted on some paper plates, or I should say I painted what she asked me to paint. She loves watching the Heffalump movie from the Pooh series, so I had to draw her a Heffalump on a plate and I helped her hold the brush as she painted. She was so proud of herself. She let mommie and papa know she painted it. This morning she woke up in a good mood, telling me...sweet dreams Nana. When I asked her what she dreamed, she said whiskers. That is the little yarn kitten who is purple that our friend Alba from Canada sent her. Last week she slept with Patty the wiener dog who are friend Laurie brought. But always, no matter which one she sleeps with, it is always....sweet dreams. She got her fingernails repainted and was so proud as mommie put a fake diamond on her thumbnail in the middle of a flower. So, mommie and I were singing Diamonds are a girls best friend.....Mila sang along!!! What I have learned from this little girl. I've had a bad sinus infection the last three days and was mopping around but then I looked at Mila and realized...there is a lesson to be learned. With all the pain she is feeling, she is still going to be happy.
Someone told me today that Mila has made them a better person. Just being with her leaves them with a natural high. I think I have a reason for that...Mila is the closest thing to an angel that all of us who are part of her lives will come to. We tap into that precious, beautiful feeling and just don't want to let it go. She told me this morning the sun woke up to see me Nana and at night we have to let her look out the shutters to make sure the sun goes to bed, and it is dark. The simple beautiful things we take for granted. The heightened awareness Mila brings into our lives........PRICELESS!!!
Thanks to all who send such beautiful wonderful messages daily. The prayers are so welcomed. We know it is because of the faith of so many that our little Mila is still here.
Andi did receive some donations through pay pal and in the mail, we thank those people too. Your willingness to help Andi and Mila as she still cannot go back to work and her medical benefits have run out is so greatly appreciated. .
Thank you our dear friends.
Hugs,
Sher
