Elijah says: "Practice, practice, practice. Right turns, left turns, about face, slow, faster, back and forth, that's what it is about. Practice, practice, practice. You know, I think I'm getting it." Well, anyway that is what Grandpa Dennis thinks Elijah is thinking.
This is a story of overcoming the odds, putting trust in God, and the miracle of prayer. Our son, Elijah, was born in August of 2007. As a result of the oxygen deprivation that occured during his birth he spent his first three (agonizing) weeks in the hospital. When he was seven days old, we were told that Elijah had "severe brain damage" on both sides of his brain. At that moment we entered Elijahland and we've been here ever since. We're learning to live with the diagnoses Elijah has started to accumulate, but mostly we're grateful that God chose us to be his parents. It is truly a privilege to live in Elijahland with our handsome boy. Thanks for visiting.

I agree Grandpa Dennis. That totally made me laugh!
