He's 10 today!

Happy 10th Birthday to our Ty!

Ty age 6 weeks! Ten years ago our lives forever changed by the beautiful gift of our only son. At that time we had no idea what was in store for his life, the struggles he would endure, the medical problems, the developmental delays.

But he truly is a gift- as he has taught US so much more than I ever knew about myself.

Because of him we are stronger than we ever thought possible. His journey is an amazing lesson in life and has taught us to treasure each and every moment- and to truly appreciate the littlest of things- things that are usually overlooked or under appreciated. He has brought a whole new meaning to the phrase "stop and smell the roses".......

He has his dog Gretchen now and she will continue to help us better help him so that he can experience more happiness and joy in his life....

he has taught us that sometimes things aren't so traditional, and that doesn't mean less,

it's just a different way to experience life.

He is so

passionate about what brings him joy-

animals, dogs, basketball, all sports, science....

and loves to share his knowledge!

He has so many wonderful things to share with the world, and we will continue to help him express it and grow so that others can experience the wonderful joy he truly is.

He really is a gift from God and we are so blessed to be his parents along this journey of life with him.

Happiest 10th birthday to our little boy-

life will continue to get better!

We promise!
