I can't wait to hold you in my arms...

I was going to write a post about how today has been but I think an email I sent sums it up best:

Well today was probably the most stressful day of my life. I just want to hold my son. I pretty much balled my eyes out when they were transporting him to Texas Children's. It's been a day full of tears. But we know he's getting the best care in the nation. But I just want to pick him up and give him a big kiss. I kissed him on the hand tonight but he has so many tubes and wires around his head that I can't get to his forehead. Nicole's pretty upset too, I think it really hit us tonight when we went and sat with him. We just feel so helpless. We've been really encouraged from all the prayer and support from everyone. Pastor Dale stopped by today and it really meant a lot. I can't sleep because every time I close my eyes I just keep picturing Jackson with all the tubes and my heart breaks. I honestly can't stop crying. We're at peace about it but I just can't stop crying. The blog had 86 visitors today! It might not seem like a big deal but to know that many people are thinking about us really encourages us (especially because that doesn't include all the people praying for us that aren't reading the blog or really even know us). Tell everyone that we honestly can feel their prayers and words can't express how grateful we are for all the support.

Love,
Kyle, Nicole and Jackson
