Cards for Kids

For our February family service project, we decided to make Valentine Cards to be delivered to children in the local hospital.  The kids had a great time decorating the cards, and we will spend the month praying for the children who receive our cards to have healing and peace.  We also pray that there will be people in their lives who will share with them the love of Jesus, the One who brings ultimate healing. 

Homework: Super Cute Siblings

Written by Isabel and Maya

The other day, Edison and Lucy were playing outside. They decided to go for a wagon ride. Soon, Clay got into his Bumbo and Lucy took the boys for a ride. Clay was super cute in his Bumbo and helmet. Edison really had fun riding in the wagon with his brother, Clay. Clay was enjoying it very much until they stopped to get a picture.

Big Boy Edison!

We told Edison if he kept his pants dry for five days, he could have a big boy carseat. He did and now he is super proud of himself.
Edison also learned  the Pledge of Alliegance. Lucy learned it at school, and taught it to him. When he says  it, he is adorable!

Lucy goes to Pre K at  Risen Savior Preschool. She goes to school every Tues. Wed. and Thurs. She loves being there. Whenever  she gets home she teaches Edison all she learned at school.  She constantly talks  about her friends Colton and Isabella, "the quiet one"as Lucy calls her. There is also a boy named William in her class who she talks about. Lucy has tons of fun at school and asks constantly, " When am I going to have school again?" Every month she has a Bible verse and is almost always the first one that memorizes it. Here is a video of her saying one.       

Helmet Head

Our little man has been keeping us very busy these days!  The last month has been hard on him as he tries to battle all the winter cold germs that are going around.  He's also been having a hard time with his feedings.  His current schedule includes feedings every two or three hours, 10 doses of medication a day, 8 breathing treatments a day, and now a helmet on/helmet off schedule every couple hours.  We have also doubled our therapy, so we have 3 at home and 3 clinic sessions each week.  Add in a doctor appointment or so each week, and he is the most high maintenance man I've ever met!  Good thing he's so cute and loveable! 
He started wearing his helmet on Friday and will be wearing it 23 hours a day by Tuesday.  So far, he doesn't seem to mind.  I guess with all he's been through he's learned to be very tolerant and pick his battles.
