We were in the newspaper!

Hi,
I'm just adding the link to our newspaper article:

A really nice reporter did the story, with a lot of flack from the school, and the photographers were great too.

So many people have called or written and told us they are praying for us, it has been very touching.

My Birthday!

Denny and my Dad helped me blow out my candles! I had a rainbow cake, isn't it cool? I was so glad everyone came to my birthday party. I did miss my cousins Andrew and Emma.

Here I am opening one of my gifts on my birthday, I had a lot of nice gifts.

I'm 19, I had my birthday!

Hi all, I had my 19th birthday, it was very exciting, almost all my family except 2 cousins came. And my special friends Denny, Kristi, Paige and her dog Emme came too! I got soo excited when they sang Happy Birthday that I had a seizure. Bummer. I got so many nice gifts, and today at school Mom is bringing pizza and pop for a party. I got a green iPod Nano, and I just love it, but how do you get those ear buds to stay in your ears? Hmmm.

I took the camera to school to share the pictures, so I will post some later, but I'm putting on a nice picture of Emma in the sun.

A Sad Day

Today we are discontinuing Emma's service at school. She made a counseolor afraid yesterday when she growed at him. She had seen him numerous times before. Mom will work on her training at home, but I won't have my buddy with me anymore at school.
