So thankful...

What a wonderful blessing to have these children of God in our lives! Jared is slowly improving. Amazing compared to a few weeks ago when he was seemingly teetering on life' edge. God the Father through the Son has blessed Jared with a miraculous recovery. I do not pretend to understand why, or the full reason why. Faith is like that. What Father you have in store for me, I ask. Please allow me to accept thy will. Please also hear the prayers of my heart to thee! That's what it's all about, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Faith in the power of God manifest through the Son.

These past four days or so the nurses have been weaning Jared from sleepy night night medicines and he has become more of the Jared we know and love. He is able to focus on us and react to our bedside presence more and more every day. His right hand is free from IVs and he has become a baby choir director! Moving about and pulling, tugging on anything he can reach and getting his hand on. He is even smiling a bit at Amber and I! Praise God! Our baby is here and being himself. The little person that we grew to know and love the six months he was home with us in between his hospitalizations.

My perspective on humanities existence has changed so much through the witnessing of my sons eventful and challenging, and blessed life. How so i appreciate my beautiful children. I would miss every aspect of them if they weren't here tomorrow. How cherished are the moments we spend with those we love and care about.

I am motivated to be a better man, husband, father, and christian as to allow my family to receive the result of acton taking that would lead to a better quality of life, now and in the eternities that await. From one parent to another, you might have similar feelings towards the people that have been placed in your stewardship. It is our responsibility to raise our posterity with the Savior being the foremost thing in our lives. No doubt exists now in my mind that this is true. To act now while they are young will strengthen them for when they move into their own.

I look forward to hearing from you soon my friend, peace be with you.

In Christ,
