In the beginning...

In the beginning, Jason and I created Noah....

After Noah was born, our lives changed dramatically. He was born with heart and spine defects and several other health problems that have led us down a very challenging path the past two years. It has made us stonger, full of faith, and determined. I started this blog because I want to share our journey.

Noah's journey of healing is a long story already, full of ups and downs, and is far from over. But his life has a very unique purpose, what he's taught us is only a small fraction of what power his healing is going to unveil! I can't wait to see what God's plan for his life will be. He's a sweet spirit, and everyone who knows him can see it. Some people say, "there's just something about him", and there is. I don't have it totally figured out, and only time will tell what great milestones he will cross.

Noah will be 2 next Thursday, and yes, time has went by quickly, but I feel like I've known this little guy my whole life! I don't remember much about life before he was born, just bits and pieces of things that seem unimportant now. Jason and Noah are the center of my life here on earth, and our journey together will fulfill my life's purpose as a wife and mother. I am so blessed and thankful. Life has been challenging and we are going through a big challenge as I write this, but somehow going back to the core of his purpose here gets me through each obstacle with grace and peace. I constantly pray for peace, because each challenge presents new issues I must face. The hardest part for me has been realizing how little control I have, and as hard as it is to learn and accept, it is one of the most crucial lessons in life. Noah has taught me that, and much more.

I'm not really sure what this blog will transpire into, maybe a tool for me to look back upon on those tough days. I need a reminder, a whisper of truth, when we are smacked down by the ways of the world. So I hope this inspires you to do the same, seeing the truth in times of trial. And that doesn't always mean being strong, sometimes that's not possible, but the truth always remains, and that's what gets me through it all.
