Jodi's First Birthday







Jodi got to celebrate her 5th birthday which was her first celebration ever! Baba was trying to lead her into the kitchen where Nye Nye and I had balloons and presents waiting. It must have overwhelmed her because she didn't want to come in! Baba had to carry her in and then she hid behind his leg for a while. Jodi finally got up in her chair and we started to hand her cards and a few gifts. She slowly warmed up to the idea of opening and had a great time. Thanks to Beth Richmond we had a beautiful cake for her and she blew out all the candles after Baba demonstrated what to do. It was very special to have this moment with her.

Jodi got some amazing gifts and cards and a huge thanks to everyone who made her day so special. We also thank you for the get well cards. The outpouring of love means more than we could ever say. She seems to be feeling better every day! What a huge relief!! We continue to pray for her healing.






I'm pretty bumbed because I have to start back to work tomorrow. It will be a tough transition for me but a necessary one. That income will come in very handy when those medical bills start pouring in!! We're still banking on the lottery someday.....:) Love to you all!!
