Wed 13-Jan-10 (a.m.) - overnight update

Maria fell asleep just after 9:30pm and didn't wake until just before 5:30 this morning. It's been a long time since she's had nearly 8 hours of straight sleep. After watching the sun rise together from her room window, I read to her from the Bible (2 Samuel). About 6:20am she fell back into a sleep, so I'vve ducked out to prepare this brief update.
