What a blessing Bryson is to our family. Hayden was only 20 months old when I found out that Bryson was coming to our family but we were just as thrilled. My pregnancy with Bryson was less than ideal but and I was hospitalized for the majority of my pregnancy but I bonded with Bryson and when he was born, we were more in love than we thought possible. We thought Bryson was going to be a girl so the name we had picked out would not work so Bryson is a combination of Brian’s son and Albertus is Brian’s grandpa Albert that he was very close too. Once we saw him and as his personality has developed we knew that the name for him was perfectly fitting.
As many of you know, Bryson has struggled through a multitude of health challenges and on more times than I would like to count, Bryson should no longer be with us which has convinced us that Bryson is a very special gift and his work on this Earth must be great. His physical challenges still hamper him today but through it all he is always has a positive attitude.
Bryson is a perfectionist and everything that he sets his mind too he accomplishes. One example is that he was recently awarded his scouting rank of Life. He had set a personal goal to have his Life rank by the time he was a teacher so with 4 days left, he coordinated and collaborated with all the merit badge counselors, convened a Board of Review and was awarded his Life rank at the Court of Honor. Brian and I were so impressed by his tenacity and drive.
Bryson loves with his whole heart and is always quick with words of encouragement, hugs, and loves. He walks Chloe to school every day as well as home and he watches over her. He makes sure she is to her class and settled before he heads home. He is great with Peyton and works really hard to keep her happy.
Bryson is truly a gift from our Heavenly Father and we love him more than he could ever possibly imagine. He is the perfect end to our family and makes our earthly family complete. He is truly one of my greatest treasures.
