A Darn Good Day!

Dear Ladies and Gentleman,

    I'm excited to tell you that my super awesome brother had a darn good day!  Today during physical therapy Britt managed to stand up 10 times! After that, he didn't think that was good enough and decided to show off a bit.  With help from two cool nurses Britt walked to one side of the room and then back! Mom says Britt is strong. He is weak, but strong! It is really awesome and I am really excited that he is getting a lot better.  I'm really proud of him for taking those big steps and cant wait for him to come home and play basketball with me!

    I'm thankful for all you guys for praying for my big brother and helping out with these miracles. I know that Britt will get better and that the Lord will choose the right path for him. I know you can get through this Britt. I love you.

From,
Britt's coolest little bro named Jaxon

  1. Of course he did. I think at this point nothing Britten will do is surprising. He comes from parents that do not know what the word quit means and who have raised four boys to be the hardest workers. Keep showing off dir us Britten. We love to hear all about it. We love you all and continually are praying for you

  3. That's awesome! Britten is amazingly strong, and has been such a great example of great faith as well as one of the most positive attitudes I,ve ever seen. I now know where he gets it. We have enjoyed reading his weekly letters for the past 20 or so months, and now are so excited to read about his progress every night. We are so proud of you Britt, and strive to follow the great example of faith and endurance you all continue to show us. Keep up the great work, and remember that we love you all. You're constantly in our prayers...LOVE the picture!!!
    Derek, Karen, and family

  4. Dear Coolest little bro named Jaxon,
    Thanks for sharing this really exciting update on your amazing brother, Britten. Our whole family has been praying for your whole family. The brother in our house is on mission in Portugal-a friend here in Grace went to Brazil and says that in Portugal, they speak ugly Portuguese, so I guess Britten speaks the pretty kind! I know that Jordan's sisters would be so upset if anything happened to Jo while he's on his mission. We've been praying for extra peace for you and Cannon and Logan and Lora while Britt's in the hospital. I am so thankful for the miracles Heavenly Father is working for Britt and for all of you! Britten is an amazing stripling warrior, and I know Heavenly Father will continue to bless hims and all of you!
    Love,
    Jeri Kay Brady

What great examples you all are. We love you all so much.
