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.

Elijah. I understand. I am missing 4 front teeth myself, unfortunate, but I don't think they were my baby teeth.
You are looking good my boy.
Yeah, we keep telling Elijah he has to take care of his teeth because his "practice teeth" are starting to fall out.
Elijah, You are growing so fast. When you are six, you lose your teeth to get ready for the "real" teeth that will be coming in. Love you, GrammaKat
