Proud

I'm proud of Ian.

Last night he sang "Who needs the world" for the Grandparent's Banquet at church. I wasn't nervous for him but he looked a little scared. Once he started singing you couldn't tell he was nervouse at all. He hasn't sang in 2 years! I don't know what changed him but 2 years ago he quit singing and has been withdrawn. Last night was a new beginning for him. And I loved to see him receive all the encouragement. Not only from adults, but from his peers too. I think it was just the encouragement he needed.

I don't know if he will continue to sing, but I sure hope so. He sings duets at home with me all the time and loves to write music. I just hope that he will continue to bless others just as he did last night. I know, my heart was overwhelmed. But hey....I'm his mom!

I'm proud of him too he has an amazing voice, a big heart, and huge potential. I can't wait to see how God will use him.
I'll be praying for his continual growth out of his shell and that his walls begin to crumble.
Love you!
