RAISING BEN...

One of the most beautiful realizations
is the knowledge that
my child’s spirit is not disabled.

Becky, that is a fantastic quotation. What a gift to have that knowledge and the knowledge that one day he will have a perfect body to go with his beautiful spirit.

Use caution now Becky that perfect spirit is taking notes and he will be ready for payback for all those things that you have done to him, like whipped cream and cherry on his little nose. What a great day that will be. I hope I am in heaven to see that payback. He will also have many hugs and kind words of thanks for nurturing his body here on earth.

Hey Lady! Sorry for the long absence!
I loved catching up though. We just opened all our mail this weekend and my kids kept asking who your family was in seeing the picture. "A very special, fun, and silly family!" I said.
thanks for the quote today!

That gave me chills. I loved those pictures too. What a special family you are to be blessed with an angel on this earth. I wish I could meet your little Ben...maybe one day.
