Some of God's Greatest Gifts...

Today is proof that there is power in prayer. It's a sign that God is here and God is good. Today your prayers have been actualized in a 2 year old who let go of the safety of his parent's hands and chose to walk. Steps that we were told he wouldn't take, steps that we've prayed for, steps that you've prayed for.


How does a mother say enough "thank you" for a gift like your prayers? I can't. But my heart is overwhelmed with the goodness that God has given us. Thank you for your faith that God would answer us.

Daily we are blessed to watch the workings of God in little Jake's life. Knowing that a child surrounded with so much prayer is destined for a part in God's work. Seeing that already Jake is touching lives with his God given abilities and sparkling personality.




I'm continually humbled by my little family, now of 4. Ethan is growing fast, already 11lbs! He's quite vocal in all his actions, and we love every sound!

I realize how small my faith actually is as I watch Jake explore our world from a new angle. While I claim a strong faith, part of we wondered if we'd ever get to today. So many blessing God has already given us with Jake's physically health and normal cognitive ability. And yet he continue to prove himself gracious again. Wow, it just blows me away.


Please be renewed that what ever your prayers they are heard and answered, in His time.


God's Blessings and Peace to you.
