First, a big fat hug from me to every one of you (remember I have LONG arms) who have shared so many personal stories of hope, love and most of all, prayers, for Joshua. I mean, I know how amazing my readers are, so I should not surprised, but still, it just is so overwhelming to know that no matter the reason, I know I can reach out to you via this ol' blog to ask for something and that it makes a difference.
Joshua's mommy and daddy send their thanks and to quote them, they are "touched and overwhelmed" (me, too!). As many, or most of you know, this is not a day to day fight for Joshua, but an hour to hour struggle, with LOTS of ups and downs, so please, I ask that you continually keep this lil one, Joshua, in your daily prayers. I will be continually printing out all of the comments you post so that I can arrange them in a special book that I am going to put together, so please comment when you can...
and well, can you believe it is , um...NOVEMBER???? I do not want to have to say this, but remember when it was the 4th of July, and I reminded you that time wears wings and will really begin to fly??? YIKES, it really is...but it is okay, we have lots of time to, um, do what we need to do for the holidays.
Speaking of holidays, we started celebrating on Friday with our annual carving party. The strange thing is, the older the kids get, the less they want to participate and the more they would rather just eat the orange
snacks. This year, it was almost all about the mom carvers.....sad, but true. Our kids are growing up...but I had fun, in fact, we all had fun...
Here is my , I mean "the boy's " pumpkins, (I used a paper pattern...I do not have carving skills!)
Have a great night...I will probably be back on Tuesday..maybe Monday, with more halloween festivities...for now, it is off to bed, this "daylight savings time really makes me fussy!"
