Josie Duggar Update

Have you been following the blog long enough to remember reading updates about Josie Duggar as she fought for her life in the Arkansas Children's Hospital NICU? The little girl who commanded the attention of the world when she was born weighing 1 pound 6 ounces turns five years old in December.

In her latest TLC Parentables post, Michelle Duggar shares how Josie reacted when the Duggar family welcomed the doctor who delivered Josie into their home for dinner. 

The night before they came over, I told Josie, “Tomorrow evening we are going to have the doctor over who delivered you. God used him to save your life and my life. The skills that he learned in school, and all of the training that he got, allowed him to sustain your life and mine.”


As the doctor and his wife pulled into the Duggars' driveway, Josie stood at the window and jumped up and down. 

The minute her doctor stepped foot through the door, she hugged his leg and didn't let go of him the whole time he was here. He picked her up, and she hugged his neck, kissed him on the cheek, and just would not let go.

At four years old, Josie has started studying phonics and violin, is riding a bike without training wheels, and loves singing.

She is excelling. She sings all the time; she has a song in her heart, and if she doesn’t know the words, she just makes them up.

Michelle says she wants Josie to understand what a miracle it is that she is alive and well. When the family meets fans who prayed for Josie when she was in the NICU, Josie shows her appreciation by giving them a heartfelt hug.

We have such gratitude in our hearts that she’s here, and we don’t take for granted a day that we get with her. It makes you look at all of your other relationships so differently and appreciate the time that you’ve got with the kids.
