Kaleb(the toddler) is my cousin. And he's sort of like a kid to me. I watch him when his parent's need me too. And I agree with my aunt "Barbara Stanley", there really is no point in blaming people when you really son't know the story. But thanks to those whom prayed for him. And continue to pray for him. They haven't released him yet, but he's our little miracle & he'll be ok. He's in God's hands.

Prase God this baby is going to be fine! How great for the family. Most of the time it doesn't turn out this way. There IS a God! And he DOES answer paryes. And to the teenager...don't tear yourself down over this. God and everybody else knows it's NOT! your falt. Children can get away from you and you looking at them. We know your sorry and just thank God he's going to be ok. God bless you all.

Glad the boy is going to be ok, and prayers are still with him and the teen. I am sure the teen is going through alot too. Accidents do happen people and you should not judge. I have a 6 year old and I know how they can get away from you in a split second, so dont blame the parents or anyone else for that matter, just be glad he is going to be ok. Thanx for the update.
