Derick shared a photo of his mom, Cathy Dillard, holding baby Israel, and revealed this year was particularly special for his family “because Mother's Day 2014 was almost my last with my mom.”
"This year my mom is celebrating not only Mother's Day, but also her first Mother's Day as a grandmother,” Dillard wrote. “My mom's story of battle and triumph over cancer is nothing short of a miracle, performed by the one true God, our Lord Jesus Christ, through many medical personnel to whom I am eternally grateful."
