After the encouragement or nagging, I am not sure which, of my husband and friends, I have entered the blogging world.
So here it goes.
I am doing this so friends and family can see pics and keep up with our journey with Jackson's illness. It has been a trying month for us. 3 weeks in the hospital, and now that we are home, IV antibiotics every 8 hrs., 3 oral meds, and a little boy who doesn't want to sleep at night. But, God is good. He has answered so many prayers. He has given us a gift of another day with our son. A gift that is not guaranteed. So I praise Him in this storm. I have learned to press into Him, even when I am questioning why. This illness and the uncertainty of our future is growing my relationship with God. I pray that through this struggle, we can shine Jesus' light to others who are struggling. Because that is why we are here, for God's glory.

I just found out about Jackson through Darby's blog. Your comments remind me that God really is here for us if we'll just let him be. Thank you for sharing and I will definitely be thinking of you and Doug and sweet Jackson.
