Today my nephew Ben stood up all by himself! Not such a big deal for most babies. However, Ben is no typical kid. Not so long ago, Ben's parents were told that he may never walk. He's been through more than his share of hard stuff already and he seems to defy all the odds. He's perfect! Not because he seems to get more "normal" every day. Normal is for cowards! Ben is perfect because he is exactly as he's meant to be.
If Ben never takes one step I won't be dissapointed. Lots of us get by fine without walking... It just looks more and more like Ben's potential is limitless. I want him to have every good experience, and a whole lot less of the crappy ones. He really deserves it!

Hey Mandy! Hope you are doing well. I've been keeping up with Becca, Mike & Ben through the blog and saying prayers for all of them. Train peeps all the same. Just before Christmas I was in a cab on my way to the train station and saw you on the street with you sister headed in the same direction. ALMOST jumped out of the cab to say hi, but was afraid I'd get killed by rushing traffic. Take care. Laura
