Here are a few more pics of our girl and we wanted to give another quick update
We don't know who she looks like - we think maybe Scott with my coloring!We got a good update today. Luckily I didn't know this until later today - but our nurse told my parents that she went home last night worried Harper wouldn't make it through the night. She's given us very grim updates but today she actually smiled (she's a really nice nurse - just serious) and said she was doing much better. Her heart rate has gone down and her blood pressure has gone up - two HUGE praises! They are worried about her heart but they can't look at it until she is off the lung machines. So we are praying her heart is fine. I woke up this morning just feeling sick and Scott and I cried and pleaded with God to save our baby and tonight we are leaving the hospital feeling so hopeful. We feel SO covered in prayer. Our pastor called us several times today and prayed with us and we know our church has been praying for us as well as all of you!
We had a lot of visitors today again. One of them was this sweet 14 year old girl MacKenzie and her mom. MacKenzie reads my blog and wanted to come and give Harper this precious pearl bracelet. What a sweet blessing!
Laurie and Steve came today and brought us so many blessings from our Sunday School class. It meant so much to have them here. My brother and sister-in-law just got here from Dallas and we were so happy to see them.Thank you again for your prayers - they are working!!!!!!! We have no doubt that Harper is a direct result of God hearing prayers! I am very limited to computer use so I am sorry again for not responding to so many of you - just know you have blessed us incredibly!

«Oldest ‹Older 601 – 655 of 655 Newer› Newest»She's a doll! So precious! South Carolina is praying for her too!
Hi Kelly! It was such an honor to meet you today. Your story is spreading like wildfire through our church and we are all praying for your precious little blessing. I've added the "Praying for Harper" button to my blog also! We'll check with you again in a few days to see if there is anything else you need. Don't hesitate to call if something comes up before then. Your MIL has the phone numbers.
Continuing to pray here in the midwest. She is absolutely precious!!
Father God,
We come to you in the Holy name of your son, Jesus Christ, and lift up Baby Harper tonight. We pray that your hand be over this baby and her family, as well as the medical team assisting them. Please give them wisdom in how to proceed with the medical care of this precious little one, and keep your everlasting loving arms wrapped around this family. Allow your light to shine through and touch every person that is involved with Baby Harper and her family. Remind them that you are sovereign and in control of all things. Eventhough we don't understand why things happen the way you do, we recognize that you know the beginning to the end, and your ways are above our ways. Please give these parents the peace that passes all human understanding, and allow them to trust their little one to you. WE pray for a complete recovery of health and growth for this child, and for your will to be done in her precious life.
In Jesus name we pray,
Amen
Prayers for you and your husband and your beautiful baby girl from Danville, California. Your faith is inspiring - God is good!
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family
I found your blog through a friend of mine. I'm also a Ouachita alum, but not sure if we knew one another. Just wanted to let you know that I am praying for Harper. She is absolutely precious, and I know that our God is mighty, and He will heal your little girl! Praying for you and your husband as well.
Kelly,
I saw a prayer request on Ginny's blog and wanted to check out to see any updates on Harper. Even though we have never met, I wanted to let you know that prayers will be lifted up from Minnesota for your dear daughter! She is a precious gift! God bless you, your husband, your family, and of course, your daughter!
Laura
Praying for your beautiful baby girl.
What a beautiful baby girl Harper is!!! Just wanted you to know I just heard about her tonight and I have sent out a prayer request to my team of about 100 people and they will send it out to their list, so know that many, many are praying! God is soverign and He is in control! Love, Ginny Evans
West Monroe, La.
Dear Kelly and Scott,
I live in Tyler, Texas and I read my daughter's blog, Allison Mullins from San Antonio, TX. I read the news of your dear Harper and I just want to say that I immediately prayed for your precious baby. I have a precious granddaughter named Harper and it just really struck a cord in me to write and to tell you to remain steadfast in His love, His grace and His Mercy. Have the faith of a mustard seed and it will see you through. My heart is aching for you and I will continually offer prayers of healing and comfort for Harper and for you and Scott. My thoughts will not be far from you tonight. Sleep well, get rest and keep the faith. God is good and is forever abiding.
Love to you all,
Janie Jolly
Tyler, Texas

I continue to pray for Harper and all of you every chance I get. Its so hard to see you have a wonderful 40 weeks and then without warning be hit with this. She is sooooo wonderful, I hope you can hold her soon and love on her in your arms. Even though I don't know you, I think of your sweet girl often, no mother likes to see another mother go through this worry. Harper is so blessed for all the prayer she is receiving. I love to see your family stand beside you and hold you up when you need it.
Blessings,
Patricia
We're praying for you Harper!
I will prayer for your baby girl...she is beautiful!! :)
We are continuing to prayer for Harper. Please know that our lifegroup has also lifted up your precious baby in prayer. May God continue to bless your baby.
You are still on my mind and heart, praying for a miracle for Miss. Harper!
xo, *S
Look at that perfect and precious baby girl! It is encouraging to read the good news, and I'm keeping everyone on my blog updated! Praying that she gets better every day!
Kelly and Scott,
She is absolutely beautiful and we are praying for your gift that is Harper Brown with all of our hearts!
Know that He is faithful. May His healing power fall like rain upon your precious baby girl tonight.
Many Blessings,
Sebi and Family
Kelly
It was so nice meeting you, Scott, and all the grandparents this morning. It was fun to find out that we know some of the same people. We are fervently praying for Baby Harper and your entire family. She is such a precious little girl and I'm sure God has incredible things in store for your little one. And what a testimony she will have to tell about the amazing grace and healing God bestowed upon her.
Tori Chambers
Kelly, I've been following your blog since the beginning of your pregnancy. I feel blessed to be a part of your journey and to be a witness to your amazing faith in the Lord. Harper is absolutely beautiful, just like her mom. You and your family will continue to be in my thoughts, and I pray that the good updates will keep on coming!
I have sent several prayers- each time I do, they do not seem to show up on the comment form. But know that we are praying regardless. Just wanted to encourage you and pray that the Lord would strengthen you both during this extremely difficult time.
Kelly, I am praying that you would get the time alone with Him and with your husband that you need right now as well as the rest you so desperately need after just giving birth. From one mommy to another- I am praying for you and your precious family with all of my heart.
May God be glorified and highly lifted up through the birth and healing of your sweet baby Harper Brown.
Love and Light,
Sebi
Just read the update your dad posted. Praise God for this awesome report! We will continue to pray for these good reports.
Make sure to take good care of yourself too!
I just read about Harper for the first time and stopped everything to pray for her and your family.
God WILL bless you with His ABOUNDING grace.
I will be following your blog.
She is beautiful! What an angel. I can't imagine what you guys are going through. I will be praying!
That is one big, strong, BEAUTIFUL baby girl! Praying for all of you!
Harper and your family are in my prayers. God does work wonders!! My son was born 12 weeks premature and weighed 2 pounds, 8 ounces. He is now a healthy 2 year old...Prayers work!! We knew constantly that prayers were being heard from all over!! I am praying for Harper's tough journey in the NICU.
Praying here in Washington State for Harper and for the Peace that passes all understanding. She is beautiful and looks well nourished! :>)
She is so beautiful, and perfect in every way.
I will continue to remember her in my prayers. God Bless
Kelly,
I have been following your blog for some time now and have never written before, but I just want you to know that I have been praying for sweet little Harper, as well as for you, Scott and the rest of your family. I'm not entirely sure how I "stumbled" across your blog to begin with, but I know it was God who led me here. It's clear that He has His healing hand on your precious daughter as I read the updates on her progress. May He continue to provide you and Scott with the strength and peace to endure this difficult time.
Brooke

Said a prayer for your beautiful daughter...hope all is well very soon!
Heard about your story. You do not know me but I am praying for your baby girl. What a beautiful little girl. Stay strong. God Bless you and your husband and precious little baby.
Adrian, MN
I may be in freezing Chicago, but I've been sending warm thoughts & loving prayers since I heard Harper was born. What a glorious baby & a beautiful mom. Y'all are going to be great. We will all keep praying for a healthy, happy homecoming.
** my word verification said wayup. That's where our prayers are going!!
Kelly,
I found your blog today after almost every other one I visited had posted something about your sweet baby! I had to come over and take a look myself. She is precious and I pray that she will recover soon and you will get to snuggle her and kiss her cheeks. It is obvious that you are loved by many, and it is unbelievable the following you have! I'm so glad you have the support of family and friends at this trying time in your life! Sorry for writing so much-I know you are busy and overwhelmed, but I just felt the need to comment. Good luck and God bless!
Oh she is beautiful! Welcome sweet Harper, precious Lamb of God! We are praying for you angel!
My five year old daughter Haley, a true prayer warrior, and I placed our hands on the computer screen tonight and prayed over all of you. Know that you are lifted in prayer by many, many people.
Hang in there.
Love,
Haley and Brandy Kiker
Pittsburgh, PA
I just want you to know that I am still praying just as much now as I was when I first found out about Harper's critical condition. Lots of love and prayers are behind you and your sweet baby girl. Get some rest, and have FAITH..as I know you do.
Dear Kelly, Scott and Harper,
I didn't know when I drove past the "pink palace on the hill" (St. Francis) earlier today, that tonight I would be praying for someone there. But make that 200-300,000 + 1 who are praying for a speedy healing for your precious babe. If you need anything, you just drop a note...I'm only an hour away. You remain in my prayers.
In His trustworthy grip,
Teresa
I came over fromAngie's blog... God has brought you and your daughter to my thoughts many times over the past few days and I have lifted you up to Him often. Praying for your miracle baby to continue to improve.
Oh she is SO very pretty!!! What a big girl - my son was 9lbs 15.3 oz - you are gonna have your hands full with her thats for sure! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers! Just remember that God has a plan for you AND for Harper!
what a gorgeous little princess. I continue to pray for your beautiful family!
Just found your blog, and I am praying for you, your family and Harper!
We are all praying for you and for Harper... Here is a comment that a blogger buddy wrote in my comment page......

Praying for you and your precious baby girl here in Nashville, Tn.
She is absolutely beautiful!! We are expecting our first grand-baby in a few weeks (a girl). As a mother I know how hard it is to see one of your children sick and feel helpless to do anything. We have to remind ourselves that the One who gave them to us loves them even more than we do. We know He is faithful and hears us when we pray and promises to give us grace and His strength when we have none of our own. You are in my prayers.
Blessings,
Elizabeth
I stumbled upon your blog this weekend. I've been thinking the best of thoughts for you and yours. Hoping Miss Harper grows stronger by the minute...
I have been following your blog through my friend Shawna...I just wanted you to know that even though I don't know you, I am praying for you little girl and believing that she will be fine.
Kristin
Your family and the others there have my prayers.
Kelly~
She is BEAUTIFUL! I will keep in and you both in my prayers...speedy recovery so you can get your lil pumpkin home with you guys!
Janae
Kelly,
I found out about your family through my friend who is a blogger. You are all in my prayers. Harper is a beautiful baby and I know she is going to get stronger and come home soon. Be strong and your faith is an inspiration to everyone.
Amy S. Arkansas
What a blessing! I have been away from the computer for a few days, but have not stopped praying. I am so glad she is doing well. What a great reminder to pray for all the babies and their families.
Dear Kelly, Scott and Harper~~
I think it is amazing that I just found you blog a few short days ago and I don't even know you but I still feel called to check in on your blog to see how Harper and you all are doing. I am praying for you all and for all the other babies there also. I am a Mom of three precious children and I can't even imagine how you are feeling now. Take care of yourselves...I know it is hard because parents tend to think about their child or children first before themselves...but Harper needs you to be strong and healthy too! Praying for you--
Tania in North Dakota
Your baby girl is such a gift. I found your blog through my sister. I pray that you may all be comforted at this time.
