Reason to Celebrate

We celebrated Jackson's 3 year Liver Tranplant Anniversary on August 13! Matt and I are amazed at the difference 3 years makes! Sometimes it seems like it was just yesterday and then there are moments when it feels like 10 years have passed! Either way it is a day to celebrate the life of our Jackson boy! We really feel like this is his "birth" day because he was granted life that day from his Auntie Cadie. We now realize looking back on it all that had Jackson not recieved this wonderful gift his prognosis of Acute Liver Failure would have resulted in our worst nightmare. We love you Cadie and thank you each and every single day that we get to spend with our boy. We love you Jackson, you truly are a miracle. I have made a habit of taking a picture every year on his anniversary just to compare. I really should do it with his shirt off to see the scar but whatever...
