Happy 21st Birthday Jaron!

OK - I HAVE to tell the story of The Jaron.

While pregnant with him, my water broke Christmas Eve. I went into the hospital on Christmas Eve and got out just before Easter! During those three months, I had no amniotic fluid, and he was breach, not able to move around due to having no "swimming fluids". The doctors didn't think he would make it to term (they said there was a 1% chance, and if he did make it, what would his issues be?)

He was delivered via C-section. Upon his arrival, my doctor said "Now I know why he was breach and had no amniotic fluid!" (This doctor is a Christian) - "His umbilical chord has a perfectly tight square knot in it! IF he had been able to turn around he surely would have died."

We are so thankful that God has a plan for Jaron in this world. He is super smart, super funny, and super diligent.

Always alert and on the lookout - that's you!



I do believe there is an impish grin





Your smile is contagious ~
