Ady’s Barracks – Gabe

Meet Gabe Aaron Weeks. He is a firecracker who will be 3 in October and has kept us on our toes since the day he arrived. He never meets a stranger and you will never find him without a huge grin (with dimples) on his face.

Before Gabe was born my husband and I were already parents to 2 incredibly sweet and easy going little girls. We were thrilled to learn we were having a baby boy and felt like parenting pros by this point so this should be a piece of cake right? Wrong! To say that there is never a dull moment would be an understatement. He is full of an energy that I envy on a daily basis. Fortunately, Gabe’s personality and excitement for life in general is not held back by his diagnosis and he continues to shine through what could be such a dim experience.

Gabe is currently enrolled in ABA and Speech at Mitchell’s Place and cannot wait to get through the doors every morning as he runs and jumps into the arms of his therapists to greet them. This has been the most exhausting, challenging, but also rewarding year of our entire lives. Seeing the progress in Gabe over the past few months leaves no room for negativity or dwelling on the things we cannot change, but reminds us to lean into God even more for his comfort and praise. The possibilities are endless in Gabe’s eyes and so we will support him just the same.

We couldn't do this without you!
