.:THE FRONTRUNNER AND PLANITARIUM WITH COUSINS:.

<:OUR FUN DAY IN SALT LAKE:>

So on Thursday we decided to go on the Frontrunner and to the Planitarium cause Mindee's kids haven't been able to do either since they live in Arizona. Jackson had way more fun this time then he did the first time that we did it. He was also excited about riding the Trax cause he thought that it was a school bus. It was cute!!!! Anyways it was a way fun day and we loved being with all of the cousins and family. We are so blessed to have such a great family, I don't know how I got so lucky:)

Having fun on the Frontrunner

Here is Jack on Mars

There is soooo much to see at the Planitarium

Jackson was so excited to watch the balls

"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.

.: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!!!!!!
