.:CHERRY HILL:.

Yesturday we had a way fun day at Cherry Hill with some friends. My great friend Megan had some free tickets from her mom for us to go. I was so glad that she invited us. We also went with her friend Elise and her little girl Avia. Jackson, Bentley, and Avia had a lot of fun, but I think that Megan, Elise, andI may have had even more fun going down the big tub slide gettting SOAKED!!!! It was fun and not too hot. Until we left and then for the only ten minutes that I was in the sun I got FRIED!!!! But we had a blast with eachother and thank you Megan for inviting us to come with you, we always seem to have a lot of fun with you and cute little Bentley:)

"A Quiet Testimony"

You could look at this little boy and think nothing is wrong
Those that know him, know he's struggled all along.
Appointment after appointment, doctor after doctor
Built up with frustration, but sitting with no answer.
Not knowing where to start or what to do
Quietly the little boy grew and grew.
His parents each holding a hand along the way
He's not going anywhere-He is here to stay.
In his eyes, determination-In his heart is faith
He pushed the bar and slowly it was raised.
Always smiling, and happy as can be
Such a small boy, not yet three.
He's stronger than most, but not where expected
His so called battle his mind has rejected.
He's doing his best, and through that succeeding
While those that love him are fervently pleading.
Throughout his life, he'll go so far
From the beginning he let to raise the bar.
With that attitude of-"Come what may" He's my little angel, Jackson Ray.
"Shannon Sommers"

.:Our Blessing:.

Jackson has just recently been diagnosed with Ataxia. He is doing so well and loves walking with his walker. Jackson still has physical, occupational, and speech therapy once a week. Jackson loves his therapists and does such a great job for them.
Jackson has taught Barry and I a lot about loving and patients. He loves so much and is such a happy boy(most of the time). We love Jackson so much and are so proud of him. Even though his life is a little harder for him you could never be able to tell, just for the fact that he doesn't let it slow him down. And that is a lesson that he can teach all of us. What an awesome kid!!!!!!
