.:THE SOMMERS FAMILY:.

Wednesday, October 29, 2008

Well we had another fun day at the pumpkin patch. We weren't going to go at first since we had already been. But Jackson really wanted to go with his cousin Talmadge--after all they are best buddies--Anyways we had a really fun time. I had a lot of pictures so I decided that I would just do a slide show. I wish that all of Jackson't cousins that lived far away could have been there. We really miss you all so much!!!!!!
----------------------.:NEW SLIDE:.------------------------

I had to put this picture on here cause Jackson wanted me to take a picture of his new slide. FUNNY STORY----Janelle is the hygenist that I work with, she was so nice and gave us this slide for free. When we put it into the back of the truck we both came to the conclusion that it would be safe to drive home on the freeway. We needless to say we were wrong!!!!!! Once I hit a 65MPH it went flying. I thought for sure it would be broken, but man that little tikes stuff is tuff. It has a couple of scraps but other than that it is in perfect condition--I hope that it had a fun flight--Jackson has had a blast with it.....so thank you Fower's we love fun and free, cause we definately need it:)

"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!!!!!!
