 Maxon has had an amazing babysitter since May 2011, at about 8 months old. She is truly a blessing. She took him to the library and the park weekly. When he had to go to physical therapy for his neck (torticollis), she took him twice a week. When we wanted him to take swim lessons, she not only took him but she got in the pool to learn how to continue his skills after his lessons ended. She taught him his colors and numbers as well as so many skills. He is truly advanced for his age and its because of her.

After TWELVE years of believing in God for a baby, she found out that she is pregnant with TWINS! Baby Andrew and Alayna will be examples of God's miracle power for their entire lives. April is due in December and was put on bedrest this weekend. We knew this was coming soon, but she has to end her time with Maxon a little sooner than we expected.

She will always be a wonderful part of our lives and we are so thankful God sent her to Maxon and our family.
