Happy First Birthday Ben!

I cannot quite believe Ben is a year old! This has been a very hard year. It has had so many highs that were higher than high and lows that were lower than low. The poor little boy has over come so much in the last year, I sometimes wonder how he managed to get through it. As you can see in the pictures it hasn't been an easy road for him.

It seems we are always trading one issue for another. Appointments with one department start to slow down and others pick up and in some cases new departments all together become involved. My hope for him this year is to just have it all slow down. I just want him to have more home time and normal time than hospital time.

One year ago our lives changed. Little Ben gave us all a wake up call to what is really important and just how many things we all take for granted. As hard as it has been I wouldn't trade it for anything. He is a wonderful and very happy little boy and no matter what happens we will all figure it out together as we go along.

Fingers crossed this next year will be easier for him.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN!!!! We love you!!!
