Early Intervention.
An answer to prayers. Yesterday we had a team from early intervention come over and do an assessment on Samuel. He did a great job by the way and they were amazed at his sweetness and joy and his curiosity. He was quick to do everything that they wanted him to do. Play with certain toys. Pull himself up to standing. Etc. Etc.
He is going to be receiving speech therapy weekly and physical therapy monthly! I am so excited. This means they'll teach me different exercises to do with him, to help him get stronger and walk. He'll also be working on more verbal skills as well as eating. Apparently he still has very "babyish" ways of eating. This gives me hope that it's not just me having a hard time with certain foods.
Thank you Jesus!

Praise God for resources to help Samuel be all that he can be. Praise God for loving parents (both you and Mike) that will train him to be a godly man.
The Lord has His hand on Samuel and will use him to touch people's lives and do wonderful things. God is using Samuel (even at this age) as a testimony to His Glory. I am certain of this.
All of my rambling to say...be encouraged. This has been and will be a tough road but none of it will be in vain.
love you,

Jennifer, your son is beautiful! I love looking at the joy in his eyes and I melt when he smiles at me. I suspect he will provide lots of pleasure to your family as the years go on. Gods gift to you.
You are doing a great job Jenn! Sometimes it is hard to step back to get a big picture view and we need the extra help. Thank God that he gives you wisdom and care you need. Phil. 1:6 is for Samuel too. He will finish his work in your little boy and what a joy that you get an upfront seat!
You go mom!!!!!!! You are doing great.
