Thinking of our upcoming court date and the endless possibilities that it could mean for Jackson and our family, allows our minds to run wild. I came across a blog today that was sharing the news of an upcoming baby and the name they were choosing for their son, Jack.Over the past few years, the name Jack and Jackson have resurfaced and have made gains in popularity again. When Jake and Whitney found out they were having a boy, they both agreed on the name Jackson, but Jake knew he would be calling him Jack, after his great grandpa Jack. Throughout these past two years, I have never looked into the meaning of Jack, but ran into that meaning tonight.
The Hebrew definition of Jack means God is Gracious, or Gracious Gift of God. WOW! Isn't this true? There is so much a name can say about a person and I feel like this definition was meant to be shared with us at this time. We hope that court on Wednesday, God will be gracious in helping Judge Hamilton do the right thing, and re-unite Jake and Jack, father and son. We know in the bottom of hearts that this will come.
We hope more than anything that Jake will receive a Christmas wish, and get the opportunity to meet his son. Even to begin if it's only for a few hours, he will take it at this point.
Thank you for the prayers, and please continue to pray for Jack, Jake, Judge Hamilton and our family this week as we head to court.
Sincerely,
Aunt Heidi
