Brave Ben, our miracle boy, is celebrating his 10th birthday today. His grandfather and I were unable to be with him this year, but we hope he has had a wonderful day. It has been almost 6 years since his life-saving brain surgeries, and we thank God every day for this precious young man.
Even though we were not able to help him celebrate, we’ve enjoyed the photos his mother took this morning…
Here’s what his mom wrote about him today…
Happy 10th birthday to my miracle boy! You have a heart of gold, the size of Texas. You’re spunky and silly, and 💯 percent all boy! I’m over the moon proud of you and the young man you are becoming. The last 10 years have flown by and I’ve watched you grow in so many ways. You are brave, strong, fiercely patriotic, and love the Lord, not to mention almost looking me in the eyes now!! I love you to the moon and back Ben, and no matter how tall you grow, you will always be my little boy!
As always, many thanks to everyone who has kept Ben in your thoughts and prayers over the past six years.

Yes, he has. His father is very tall, and the doctor said Ben will most likely grow to be taller than his father.
