Big day today...

Preparing to take my baby boy in for lots of testing and hopefully answers as a result. Praying that nothing at all is wrong with him. Hoping that he will have a normal childhood playing sports and running and climbing like the little monkey boy that he is.

Candles of prayer have been lit. Requests have been made to God. Hope is in my heart as well as faith. Faith that God is in charge and would not afflict my child with a horrible disease if it weren't necessary for a bigger purpose. Faith that I have the strength to handle whatever is thrown my way. And gratitude for the blessing he has given me in this little boy. My Jake Kenneth Paul...with Grandpa's blue eyes. Thank you.
