Trying to figure out how to get my blog up and going. My sister is a pro at this so she is giving me some tricks to get this figured out. Crossing my fingers!

Amazing


Sorry this is sideways! But this is too inspiring (at least for us) to not share!

Christopher is now gaining the confidence to walk up and down the stairs by just holding on to the rails!

And he has managed to put my camera on a "sepia" mode so my video looks funny! One smart little boy I tell ya!

anything is possible



Love this of my kids! Christopher is learning so much!

We were told he would have major learning disabilities due to his Hydrocephalus.He is quite the opposite! In fact... when being evaluated for Special Needs pre-school he almost didn't qualify. You need to qualify under 2 different categories. Apparently being (extremly) physically handicapped is just not gonna cut it!
Interesting huh?

Project ELI.avi


this is amazing...I got this from my friend Adrienns blog. All that look at my blog and wonder about Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalous this is a great video. This is exactly what we went through.

Along with so many families, we didn't know anyone else with this diagnosis. We were so scared and no where to turn but to our Heavenly Father. With his help we became stronger than we ever thought we could and our little Christopher Rudger was born, and our lives changed forever.Our lives changed for the better.

Since the moment Our little Christopher was born I decided I wanted to be a source of strength to any family that needed my help. Any mother who felt scared and alone, I wanted to help. I have come across some amazing Mother's through this experience who build me up and make me a stronger person as well. It's been an amazing journey so far.
