UPDATE (11/25/13)
Just got back from two different doctor appointments today….and Beckett is doing GREAT!! This news is still hard to process at times. We are so very blessed and thankful for how far we’ve come. It has been a wildly challenging year, but so very rewarding.
If you haven’t noticed yet, I recently posted a new video of Beckett and his journey throughout this past year. It was truly sobering to watch, yet amazing none-the-less. I think both Leah and I have seen it a few times already and have cried each time. So, if you get the chance, check it out. (oh, and a big thanks to those who helped put it together….Logan, Keith and Melvin)
These past few weeks have been crazy for me. Within the last week or two, I’ve written 7 papers, and still have 4 more to go before Thanksgiving break (I should probably be working on that instead of doing this). But needless-to-say, it’s taken a lot of my time, and unfortunately it has been extra challenging to properly balance life. Leah has been very gracious and understanding of my time, but I will be looking forward to when work/school/family life finds some state of normalcy once again.
Also, please pray for Leah and Beckett as I will be out of the country for a few weeks in December. This is the definition of bittersweet. This trip is going to be fantastic (and is partially a requirement for my schooling), but it will undoubtably be difficult to be away from both Leah and Beckett. They need prayer, I need prayer…don’t we all? Christmas will be a blessed time this year of some much needed rest and memory-making family-time!
That’s about it for now. Don’t forget to vote for Beckett (see below), cause I think we only have until December 1st!
Vote for Beckett!
