A Life Changing Weekend

This past weekend we discovered that our lives will now be forever changed. Jack has been cruising around the furniture since our last update of video with his first steps. It was nice. I could see where he was and I knew he would be anywhere that he could hold on to furniture. Well - that has all changed. As he has developed confidence in his ability to balance he began slowly walking between people. Then this weekend, he mustered the courage to walk from one object to the other! I put some new shoes on him on Monday and he was off and running. It is fun to see him engage in so much more now that he really has a choice of where he goes. For instance...yesterday we were shopping. I was checking out and Jack decided he wanted to play outside. He picked up one of my shopping bags and headed toward the door! So fun. As we walked together from store to store he would see things of interest (like old leaves, chunks of salt, dirt) and go to investigate them! It is interesting to see what he wills. Our prayer is that as he continues to take steps in life - that they would lead him to the Lord.
