Happy Birthday Luke

Happy 9th birthday Luke!! We are SO VERY proud of you, and the fighter you are!

I have to admit when went birthday shopping for Luke this week it was a little bittersweet. I couldn't help but think just for a second what kind of presents I would have been buying if this was a normal 9 year old birthday...most likely it would have been some sort of skateboard or scooter thing. But....dropped that pity party real fast, and thought...snap out of it and celebrate the fact that he is here celebrating 9 years and progressing still! So, after getting some transformers, a mini drum set, some mini skateboards and a ramp, I found some things he can play with. Today we celebrate Luke's birthday, and the amazing gladiator that he is!! We are so thankful that God continues to be at work in Luke.

Also, deposit is mailed, we are going back to Napa August 3rd!

You have shown us all what a nine year old boy can do when he puts his heart in it. We are so proud of you. God has great plans for you, my dear grandson. Go Luke!!!
We love you.

Happy 9th Birthday to you Lukey!
So many barriers broken for this boy! I can't imagine what more he will accomplish with another trip to California, but know there is so much more this amazing boy is yet to do! God Bless!
