and cover over a multitude of sins.

(As I prepared my Sunday School lesson for today, I found a note at the end that encouraged us to invited people to Sunday School next Sunday to learn of the resurrection and its impact on our future.  That certainly is  good idea.  This morning, hears a verse to give us more encouragement to do so.)

Jadon’s Journey (Written by his mom)
Ortho doesn’t think it’s a fracture. She thinks that the tendon is tight and because Jadon is so active it is rubbing against the bone by his heel which is the area that hurts him to touch. The rubbing is causing inflammation which is causing him to not be able to walk. They put him in a cast for 2 reasons. 1 to let his foot rest so it can heal. 2 to help stretch the tendon. They casted his foot at a 90 degree angle to stretch it really well. He will wear the cast for 2 weeks and then we will go back to see what needs to be done next. He is so happy he can walk on it. I just pray it doesn’t set him back too much. He was doing so well!! The ortho seems to think we will have to do adjustments every time he has a growth spurt.

Koltyn has had a very eventful weekend. Although all good things must come to an end and sadly ours is ending with a trip to the ER. We have been noticing what seems like “Absence Seizures aka Petit Mal Seizures” sudden blank stares for short periods of time like he has just been startled. They are getting more frequent and the Dr. told us to bring him straight to the ER for further testing. Praying everything is ok with our ‪#‎littlemiracle‬. Thanks to everyone this weekend for your support for ‪#‎KoltynBradley‬ it means the world to our family the love & support our amazing community has shown us.

Rod Venable will be having surgery this week.  Keep him and Bridgette in your prayers.

Please continue to pray for Joe Easley and his family.

 Jadon’s Journey

Update on Jadon’s foot. The orthopedic called yesterday and said that after reviewing his xrays that it looks like a fracture. It is not his tendon like we originally thought. We will go back to Childrens Monday to get a cast. He is not happy about it. He wants it to come off now because he says it feels better. He is such a tough little boy. He kept telling me there was a crack inside his foot. Well he was right. His brace that he wears was giving him enough support to walk and that’s why he was having so much trouble when we took it off. It also explains why it was getting worse daily. It had to be hurting him and he never complained of pain. My tough little guy! (Written by his mom)
