Mother and son...

When Elijah was in the still in the hospital, my talented and sweet friend offered to come with her camera in hand and snap some photos of Elijah and I together. Of course, I am so much more comfortable behind the camera, but I was so thankful that she offered to capture this part of Elijah's journey.

I love the pictures...they capture the love I have for him and the joy I feel when we are together...and they remind me of how much I love this little boy.....

Tomorrow is a big day. Lots of procedures, lots of questions....maybe some answers when we get the results in a week or so.

What a gift this has been given to spend this one on one time with Elijah. What a privelege it is to be his mom. He turns 6 years old next week...We both have wishes. He wants a banana, a flower and a white birthday cake. I want the chance to be his mom for a long, long time... To read him stories, to ride the elevators alongside of him, to watch him as he grows stronger, and to hold him when he is afraid....and to tell him that I will love him more than he can ever imagine.
