So the last couple posts have been pretty incredible. And I am thankful. But I also want to be honest and want you to have a glimpse of both sides of the coin. Tonight was a great night. We spent time with great friends and had some wonderful conversations. However, Tonight had its sadness also. Tonight, Toby realized something or at least he voiced it for the first time. There was a baby at our house that had just turned one. He was walking around like a champ. Super cute. Toby realized the difference. At first it was just a quick sentence. "The baby is standing." and then throughout the night it progressed. "The baby is walking." And then a little more. "The baby is walking without a walker." My heart is genuinely heavy tonight. Its hard to say all around sad, because it was a good night. But just heavy. After Toby thought these things through he said, "I am going to walk without my walker." And then he tried. Needless to say it didnt quite wor

I read your blog regarding how you found out about Toby. I remember hearing from others that your baby was sick and you were going to have to take lots of care of him but I never understood what that meant. Until I moved to NC where I met a family who has a 5 year old little girl with Spina Bifida that became good friends of Jasmine and realized all you go through raising your son. The little girl I know lives a very fulfilled life she has all she needs and parents that love GOd so much and others due to this! I know God gives children with disabilities to special people and you are one of them! I read your facebook and see your pictures and all I see a women full of LOVE and LIFE for the Lord and that is so Amazing !! You are living a full life and that is a great testimony to all of us! Thank you for sharing your life with us it is special to see how God is answering prayers and how you live for the Lord daily!! You are a blessing to all of us!
