I know this sweet girl names Lisa. She has started this awesome blog and does JOYFUL FRIDAYS. I have decided to link up with her this Friday and write a happy joyful post. Ive been a bit down as of late and I wanted to post something up lifting today. So as you all know I am joyful about many thins and so grateful for everything I do have but today I am extra joyful and thankful for my youngest son Landon. After loosing Kael the pregnancy journey was TOUGH!! I was always so scared that something would be wrong with the new baby, would it be to hard to have another little boy after loosing his brother, could I love him enough, crazy I know but through all 9 months I worried and I stressed!! When Landon got here breathing and crying it was an amazing moment! I cried and cried and was so grateful we was here safe and sound! As Landon has gotten bigger we have had some scares. Lots of testing, MRI's, follow ups with the docs and in late April early May he will even need some surgery to help him. The doctors are going to go in and fix the muscles in his eyes so that he no longer goes cross eyed. The doctors worried because at Landon's 18 month visit he wasn't walking still and his lower muscles didn't seem to be responding well... Well about 1 week after his last appointment my AMAZING little fighter started WALKING all over the place!! I cant even begin to describe the JOY!!! Every time he starts walking around it brings tears to my eyes!! He is such a fighter and such a miracle boy. He has brought me lots of joy and peace. I picture Kael watching over Landon until he made it here safe.. that's brings me joy as well. What an amazing LIFE we have, what an amazing world we live in.... Anyways I guess long story short I know we may still have hurdles ahead but we embrace them 1 day at a time and just be JOYFUL for the moment we are in now. I can for sure tell you that Landon walking has brought me great JOY!! So head on over to Lisa's blog and link up if you'd like to. Her blog address is http://www.joyfuljones.com/ she is such a sweet girl and always has some amazing things to talk about!! I hope you all find a little bit of Joy today as well!! Much love as always!

YAY Landon! Such a big boy!!
Visiting from Joyful Moments, and just have to say...what an uplifting post! I admire your dedication to your children! As a kindergarten teacher, I see so many children who aren't cared for...I have to commend those parents that do work hard at parenting and being a family. Thank you for sharing your joy in your children's accomplishments.
Yay! Such a happy boy! I was scared when prego with Lucas too so I know just what you mean. Will pray for him when the time for surgery arrives. I am sure he will be just fine!
Just noticed my last name was on your blog list. Would you mind just taking my last name off? I'm working on doing the same on Livy's blog. It'll take months, but I'm determined. Thanks! xo
One more thing... your blog looks great!!
TGIF! He is such a cute boy!
