Zachary

Zachary is an incredible little boy that just shines so bright with the love of Christ. He almost always has a huge smile on his face and loves almost everyone he meets. He started smiling at a mere 4 weeks old and giggled shortly thereafter!! When he was born he had a disease called Hirschsprungs. It was a pretty severe case that caused a portion of his intestines to not have the nerves that allow a child to have a bowel movement. He became a very sick little baby. But, at 4 ½ weeks of age, he had a surgery to repair this problem and I can remember the nurses in the hospital just loving him so much because he would stop sucking on a bottle just to give them a great big smile…even when he wasn’t feeling very well. His curious little nature and happy disposition was nothing compared to the amount of energy this child was blessed with. He kept me VERY busy and on my toes and I confess to more than a few occasions of feeling as though there must be something terribly wrong! But, with lots of prayer I was assured that there was nothing wrong, but that instead he was just marvelously and wonderfully created by an awesome God who has great plans for his life!

Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever. Daniel 12:3
