I HEART My Boys!
First things first. I have to brag about my wonderful awesome husband. And I have a confession at the same time. I think sometimes his job SUCKS! He leaves about 5:30 am and doesn’t get home until 7 Mon-Fri. He works MOST Saturdays where he leaves the same time but gets back about 4:30 or 5. I get annoyed and feel the weight of being a wife/mom is tough when my husband is gone. BUT!!!!!! But but but… I will admit… James is AMAZING around the house. He will cook when he gets home, help me clean up the tornadoes my kids cause… amazing. So… anyway. This job is important and so are all these hours because it is what has us HOLDING ON TO THIS HOUSE BY A THREAD! Seriously. If he could work 3 more days a week… survival may be easier… ummmm… but a week doesn’t have 9 days. Anyway. We had an awards banquet to go to last night. Of the Van Tuyl Dealers and 405 advisors (car service advisors) he is top 5 is sales!!!! If you had the customer service and take away the 2 that did not get awards because of low customer service, he is top 3!!! I am so very proud of him! He works hard and really deserves the best! He has me… so he got the best… HA! I am totally kidding.
So Santana had a ROUGH day on Tuesday. Went to bed with oxygen and very low sats… But woke up as a happy birthday boy.
(WOW! I am obviously distracted…. the above was written like 14 hours ago… Glad it saved… )
SO ANYWAY…. On Thursday, Santana’s Birthday he had a WONDERFUL DAY! How many kids get to go horseback riding on their birthday? (Therapy or not) He did AWESOME in speech. His eye gaze communication is getting much better. He can do it… it can be slow… but he can do it! He LOVES his suckers! Then he did well in OT. Very loose and an open hand! Usually it looks like he has bad contractures. But he is loosening up.
Today… the day of his party… he has a cough going on. I am hoping it will pass after treatments and what not. He can NOT get sick!!!! =( Also… we are supposed to get rain so I am praying (and those that know me KNOW I LOVE RAIN) it doesn’t come till after the party! But this is Arizona and we do have the Weirdest storms and predictions.
So as far as what we HAD up our sleeves, it is still going to happen… but in March. And I don’t want to post it in this entry because there is so much writing and I do not want the AWESOMENESS of it to get lost. So I am gonna go rock some SCHOOL’S OUT FOR THE SUMMER on Guitar Hero before my day gets started. ;-D
I had more to say but I am not quite awake at 6:45 am.

hmmmm, “Schools Out for the Summer” I wonder what that means?
I know, but I’m not telling. Pretty awesome Baby Doll. I’m excited already.

You are amazing! The way you write makes me think you need to write a book! You have a way with words! Which I know you really already do b/c of your website for Santana. We continue to pray for all of you!
