I had the pleasure of seeing this in its first live performance. Jacob's parents are due a huge amount of thanks for their persistance and sacrifice.

I’ve been Facebook friends with Paul for years now and read many of his post throughout the years. The struggles, good days and bad. This segment brought tears to my eyes. They truly are such an amazing family. 💞
