Lisa and Andy, The picture you posted with this Elijahland entry says a lot about the development of Elijah. Even though we have never seen him in person,the picture to me shows that he is aware of many things and is in deep thought. This to me shows that his brain is very active and he is going to be progressing mentally as he continues to grow and mature in his boyhood years. Reggie and Sandy Warren
I had that feeling with my little Chloe just a couple weeks ago. I told her I was going to fix her, and even though she's non-verbal, she let me know in her special way that she was the one who was going to fix me, not the other way around!
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.

Him teaching YOU.... Amen, Sister-friend! I feel the same.
Great minds in small packages.
