Jason and Erin have always been conscious of John's history of neglect that they never introduced "time outs" to him. When discipline was necessary, they did "time ins" - holding him or sitting next to him so he was separated from his current activity, but never separated from them as punishment. This past week has been excruciating for Jason and Erin to not be able to hold and comfort him, making this photo an exceptionally precious moment.
Prayer Requests:
- for more opportunities to cradle and comfort John
- for a sense of normalcy for the older kids
- for Jason and Erin to not feel guilty when they spend time or thoughts away from John
- for administrative tasks to get organized and planned beyond the current hour and day to provide some stress relief in planning next steps
