Nineteen Months

Noah is nineteen months old today. Wow! I cannot believe how much my Little Stinkpot has grown and learned and changed. He is becoming so independent and loves to play. He is constantly on the move...stopping occasionally for a cuddle, hug and kiss.

His current stats are:

Weight: 28 pounds, 7 ounces
Height: 33 inches

I don't know what Noah was thinking here...but how cute is he?!?

Noah is such a cuddler. He loves to hug, kiss and snuggle. This is such a tender picture. I can almost see two brothers together.

The Story

Our son, Noah Stone Jackson, was born with a very rare genetic disorder called Fraser syndrome. Among his many challenges are one “hidden eye”, a narrow trachea (which required him to have a tracheotomy), an imperforate anus (which required a colostomy), difficulty swallowing (which required a G-Tube for feedings), the fusing of his vocal chords (which means he may never speak), and club feet (which are being corrected with braces). Our family is on an amazing journey together. We are learning to walk along this path that God has planned for us, trusting in His infinite love and wisdom. We are taking each day (or each moment) as it comes and relying on each other, our friends and family, and our God for strength. We have a long road ahead of us filled with several more surgeries, lots of recovery, countless hours of therapy, and many trips to specialists around the state. Every day brings us challenges but they pale in comparison to the smiles and cuddles from our little man. Noah is our son, a true gift from God, and we cannot wait to see where this adventure leads.
