When he grows up

It has been suggested that he would make a great lawyer. Or even a pastor like his daddy. But he is adamant - he is going to be "a inventor". 


To his credit he has all kinds of ideas. Most of them involve light sabers or other Star Wars references. Some of his solutions to problems involve jet packs. 

To me, however, the most amazing thing is that for a child to be born 15 weeks early and survive, to suffer to trauma of separation and adoption and work through that, and to be diagnosed as completely blind at five months and to surpass many odds, the door is wide open. These could all have been reasons that he would not be given the opportunity to dream about "when I grow up" but he is not only surviving and dreaming, but thriving.

He was promised victory and we are seeing victory in so many areas. The past four months or so have brought great gains in academics and behavior. He loves learning and I love learning with him. 

Mr. Victor, I can't wait to see all the amazing ways that God is going to continue to use you for His kingdom!
