Kaleb Then (moments after surgery)

Kaleb Now
"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Isaiah 40:28-31 (NIV translation)

Life with a 1 year old

Kaleb is now 13 months, going on 14 months here in a couple weeks and it's hard to believe we were ever standing by his hospital bedside praying for his heart to heal right.  You look at this kid and just cannot even believe he went thru what he went thru.  I know I say on every almost post how grateful for his life I am, but man, it will never grow old!  I will always be so grateful for his life, for him, for who he is, and the little guy he is becoming.  His new favorite thing is putting his lips together to make, and excuse the term, but farting noises!  LOL.  He'll walk around for 20-30 minutes playing with his toys making these noises and it is just the most entertaining thing in my day is to watch these new sounds he's learning to make and to be able to push his little "popper-rollie-toy" AND make those noises at the same time is pretty impressive.  Just seeing how much he learns every day astonishes me!  Kids are amazing period!  Seeing what they learn and how quickly they adapt to life in just 1 year of life is absolutely a miracle in itself!

I can't wait for what tomorrow brings!  And the next day, and the next, and the next, and the next!
