Last month in pictures

Before I get to what we have been up to this past month, I wanted to share a story about a family we know who lives in our community, and I have played bunko with the mother. A little boy named Luke, who just turned 6 this past month, had a seizure just after New Year's. He got to the hospital and was found to have spinal meningitis. This turned into encephilitis. He has been fighting it ever since. He's on his way to the Mayo Clinic in MN the end of this week for further treatment. He is currently not talking, he's unable to move one side of his body and he can't walk or sit. It's such a sad and scary story. If you'd like to read more about him, his mother has been writing a blog: Luke's Blog. I'm sharing his story so that we can increase the number of people praying for his recovery.

Now on to brighter things, my beautiful boys. The first picture is of Glenn playing his guitar that he got for his birthday. He's so cute, he'll ask us to sit and sing with him, or just lay on the couch playing and singing.


Alexander coloring (after I took this picture, I realized he was so busy posing for the picture that he was coloring on the tile instead of the paper)


We had a cookie decorating party with Alexander's playgroup.


Bob's parents and nephew, Danny, came last week for a visit. We've been having beautiful weather and they were out fishing with the boys one evening. Yes, Bob is in his pj's, which he also worked in. :)


Alexander tried to wake Danny one morning, but since he wouldn't wake up, he cuddled with him.


Alexander wearing the turkey hat Glenn made last fall for Thanksgiving (and Danny trying to hide)


Glenn loves painting on his easel.


Alexander loves to wash his hands so he can make bubbles, which he then puts in his hair
