Miracle Monday

Some Pics of the Birthday Boy

Today is a very big day in my family. Its Brax's 9th birthday. I understand that for most kids their ninth birthday is not a massive deal. I know that sounds rude but seriously turning nine isn't that special. But for Bugs it is a massive accomplishment. Considering he wasn't supposed to live to be 6 months old let alone 9 years. It's amazing to think of everything he has made it through since the moment he was born. Brax has seriously done so much more than anyone said was possible. It truly shows you that anyone can do anything. It is so fitting for his birthday to come the week before Thanksgiving. He shows everyone how much there is to be thankful for in the world. Truly knowing Brax's reminds you to appreciate the small things. I would probably for instance not think twice about the ability to enjoy the taste of food. But when you look at Brax grinning from ear to ear about the lick of a sucker or a mini bit of cotton candy, you realize how lucky you are. I feel like Brax is in every way a blessing. And I know everyday he is still here is a miracle. No one that has ever met Bugs, would think he would be here physically to celebrate this birthday. This is a really really sick day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUGS! I will love you for absolutely ever and can't wait to celebrate more of your birthdays.
