Do you believe in miracles? I do. Today, I witnessed a miracle that lasted 1 minute and 13 seconds. 1:13. We were practicing swimming and some aquatic therapy today (thank you, Mimi, for your help!), and then it happened. With determination, confidence, a bit of fear, and a LOT of courage, RYKER WALKED. Not just a few steps...but so many steps that I lost count! He walked for 1 minute and 13 seconds! When Ryker was diagnosed with Joubert Syndrome, we were told he would probably never walk. But I know my God is bigger than ANY diagnosis. Bigger than ANY "expected outcome." I know my God works miracles. I believe in miracles. Albert Einstein once famously said, "There are only two ways to live your life. One as though nothing is a miracle. The other as though everything is a miracle." Folks, everything is a miracle. I know Ryker is on the way to walking -- no, RUNNING -- independently. It's not a matter of years or months...it's a matter of days. He is SO proud of himself, and we are SO proud of him too. I hope our miracle brings you joy today, and I hope you can recognize the miracles that are surrounding you every single day. "He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed,
miracles that cannot be counted." ~ Job 5:9

So happy about Ryker!! You may not know this but my folks were told the same....the likelihood of my walking without aids was not good. So do I believe in miracles?! You bet I do every step I take!! Ryker will be off and running before you know it...and his spirit will lead the way!! We are cheering him on from St. Louis!! ❤️
