We are ending the "Power Boots" journey hopefully on Sept 27th! It will be here in no time and we are praying Ben has made a full recovery and the bones are healed correctly.
This "Power Boot" journey I admit has been very easy. I thought it was normal that Ben has done so well or that maybe he is just an exceptional kid but the truth is I over looked the power of answered prayers and God reminded me.
Last Saturday I went to a hair salon and while I was being dunked in the shampoo bowl I listened to the conversation next to me.
"Our family is finally going to be better! We have been prisioners in our home since my two year old went into two walking casts. He has been so miserable since he broke his legs. Always complaining about itching and whining about his casts has driven me insane! Anyways we got them off finally after six weeks and we're going swimming."
I kind of laid in my shampoo bowl wide eye'd and amazed. We haven't had anything similar to her complaints and life has hardly had a hiccup since getting the casts on. As I continued to lay in the bowl I started to process our good experience...Was Ben just stronger and braver and an exception to the norm? Did we just handle things better or are our casts made of top line material? The answer to all of these thoughts was a definate NO. The truth is prayers were answered and I had failed to notice and/or give God thanks for them. So to correct a very sad oversight I would love to take a moment to say THANK YOU GOD!!! You are amazing, faithful and this girl LOVES YOU! Second THANK YOU to everyone who took time to pray for our family, you're prayers were answered!
With Love,
Cameron, Jennifer, Micah, and Benjamin
