A no walker, no wheelchair kind of day.

First day of 1st Grade.

It was such a special day.  Carsen walked into school hand in hand with me.  No walker, no wheelchair.  Only his backpack and his family along side of him.

Can you imagine what it must be like for a parent who was told 5 years ago, "Life will be rough for him."  No answers, no descriptions, no guesses or any sort of help with this prognosis.  Just rough.

He walked, he balanced, he flapped his hands and he smiled like it was the best day ever.

Tears well up while typing this.  My boy walked into school.  I am confident saying this was God, and this was our miracle.

We are the lucky few that get to experience this.  We know it and we are embracing it!
