.:WATCH OUT:.

Barry's sister Shannon has finally moved home from Washington---FINALLY---We are so excited to have her back. Especially Jackson, he won't leave his Aunt Shani alone. Anyways, on Saturday she wanted to go shoot some guns and so Barry got to take Jackson cause I was working. Jackson loved it. He liked shooting at the water cause it made it splash. I was surprised that he wasn't scared of the noise. I guess that he wouldn't be a part of either family if he didn't like to shoot guns. Shannon did a great job at capturing the bullet in the picture. Good Job Shan!!!!

"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!!!!!!
