We actually just bought a digital thermometer (we can't find the one we had in Dallas), we can get Tylenol here, powdered WHOLE milk is difficult to find and would cost a fortune to ship (like $60 for maybe 10 kilograms), and I did find some nice toilet paper that is 2-ply and affordable. I told my parents to shove Ziplocs in the box they are sending us, so I think we'll be set for a while. And despite my initial shock at the price of milk and U.S. toilet paper, we don't have restaurants or movie theaters or "normal" stores here, so there isn't much temptation to spend money other than on groceries and necessities. :) Everything evens out! You are precious, though!! I can give you a list if you really, truly want to send a box, but we warned it will be expensive!! :( Love, CarrieGavinCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18438584462245987122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194119873694032441.post-21507112978078933442014-06-28T22:42:38.369-05:002014-06-28T22:42:38.369-05:00Saying my night prayers hoping Gracie is feeling b...Saying my night prayers hoping Gracie is feeling better this evening and that Seth has continued to improve.

I'm praying for the babies health and for you as parents as you navigate this. God will carry you through these tough times. <br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Paula Thomps<br />Paula71https://www.blogger.com/profile/05152560895036243670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194119873694032441.post-83626179727757399162014-06-28T08:03:21.288-05:002014-06-28T08:03:21.288-05:00It is beautiful to see how even in the midst of th...It is beautiful to see how even in the midst of the storm, you are at peace and at home in the place to which God has called you.
