"God doesn't give children with special needs to strong people; He gives children with special needs to ordinary, weak people and then gives them strength. Raising a child with special needs doesn't take a special family, it makes a special family."

Say Cheese
The other day Tanner was playing with Daddy's american express card, and I couldn't quite figure out what he was doing until I watched this video again! He is taking pictures, and saying "cheese" over and over!
:) so cute! Look at him using his strong arms to get himself up onto the Sit-N-Spin. That was awesome! Not a whine or anything when his legs were stuck for a bit. Brendan will get frustrated and make these squeaky/whine noises as he's doing stuff. I have to make myself NOT get up and help, even when he says he can't do it. But the smile afterwards, and the feeling of accomplishment that he has makes it all worth it!! Thanks for sharing this video!
This blog was created to celebrate the amazing moments and challenges of raising a child born with Spina Bifida. Also to allow family and friends a glimpse into our crazy life!
"Don't let the worries of the future, Ruin the joy's of today!"
It is never too late to become what you might have been. SO GO FOR IT!!!
Ray and I have been married for 10 years. We have 2 of the cutest little boys, Tanner & Connor. Tanner is 6.5! He is so smart, and continues to learn new things everyday. He was born with Spina Bifida, Hydrocephalus, Chiari Malformation, and Bi-lateral Club Feet. He has been through so much, and continues to amaze us. Tanner will be in 1st grade this year, and is really liking it, and making new friends! He is also really into WCMX, Adaptive Surfing, Handcycling, Wheelchair Basketball! Connor is already 3.5!! He has a really big personality, has no fear, and is such a ham! He is my sunshine. We are truly blessed. We currently reside in Phoenix, AZ.

He is such a doll, Star! What odd day we live in that a credit card looks like a camera to a toddler. Lol! Maddie uses anything that shape as a phone.
