Default Happiest of Happy News!
Jesse is okay. She's been returned to US forces in Iraq. Thank you all so much for your prayers.

My Mom spent yesterday with her family and they were reading all the cards and letters from all over the world, and putting them into scrapbooks for Jesse to read when she got home. Even before they got the news that she was okay, her Mom (Dee) just knew that she'd be okay with so many people praying for her. Mom said the hardest part was reading the letters from the little kids, some of them sent pictures and some asked for pictures of Jesse. Dee just kept saying that she couldn't believe taht it was her baby out of all those soldiers who was missing.

I heard the news tonight at the gym but they hadn't announced who it was. All the way home I prayed that it was Jesse. God is truly awesome, just like the song we sang back in church. My faith has been tested lately, I'm ashamed to admit, but he truly is forgiving, so there's hope for me yet.

The phone hasn't stopped ringing all night, I'll tell you all about my fit assessment when things calm down.

Thank you all so much, you're the greatest!!! (Oh, don't stop praying for all the other POWs, they're someone else's Jesse.)

she was taken from a hospital by special forces. They got the word and went in and got her.

Glad all the way around!
