Awww that was so sweet! I am so happy for you and your son!! Bless his sweet little heart. And momma was there to play and cheer him on. Your son is so proud of you and that must be a non scale victory of epic proportions!

I encourage EVERYONE to read! This was an beautiful insight into a profound NSV - not all NSV are celebrated by the person losing the weight.

I have not yet been able to have children. Perhaps one day I still have a chance to take my child to baseball, too.

How inspiring! Thank you SO much for sharing this. I'm being sleeved on March 2nd, and looking forward to joining you and the others for a healthier life. I have 3 children of my own, my fiance is helping me raise them, and they're all scared for me to take the surgery plunge, but I tell them either I take this risk, or risk gaining more, and cutting more time off my life.

Thank you again for sharing.

Now I know how I got to your blog (which I have saved in my favorites for easy access lol)! I always find such great encouragement from reading your blogs, and on days when I am feeling down, or just need a quick reminder of great the Lord is, I go and read one of your entries and I am quickly reminded of His love for me! Thank you!

Thanks everyone!! I wanted to reply to each comment individually but for some reason it's not letting me do that. But thanks so much for your sweet comments. I really appreciate it . I am so encouraged by all of you . what a great community we have here.

Omygoodness I'm crying! That was beautiful!! Congratulations to you for your success and for raising such a wonderful human being!

Aww.. I have tears flowing down my eyes right now.. what a beautiful moment in your life this should have been. Thanks so much for sharing this. Your son is a sweetheart! And I'm so happy for you - you have a great family (I read your blog 300 ponds down regularly).

Thank you!!
