Fit for a King :)

This past Monday, Ezra was "fit" for his new Stander. This piece of equipment will enable Ezzy to experience standing. As he uses his little legs, safely and snuggly in his Stander, he will begin to gain muscle in his legs, so that ONE day LORD willing Ezzy will walk! :)
After about 10 minutes of fitting his cute little body just right in all the straps and braces, the therapists and equipment guy lifted him upright. As you can see from the pics below, his eyes were bright and ready to take in life in his new position...STANDING! He was so marvelously ALERT and awake, it made me smile! I loved seeing him respond so wonderfully to his new equipment. I just received a message that his new feet braces that he will wear with his Stander are ready to be picked up. So soon, Ezzy will be "cruising"! This Stander IS on wheels that also has brakes, which is good with the hardwood floors we have within our home! Between Ezzy and Owen in his walker, a baby gate is a sure order for the stairway.
Our little Ez Man continues to teach us so much about God's perfect PLAN and POWER!
We PRAISE Him for the wonderful day of being "fit" for new equipment and for the genius inventors who have thought all these new contraptions up for kiddos like Ezzy. We are blessed and wanted to share a little about what is new in the life of our precious son...
