My Little Don :-)

This is how this shirt use to fit!!!
He used my blanket to fill it in. It's hard for me to believe that he filled that shirt in.

Don has lost 120lbs, that's 10 pants sizes, and 5 shirt sizes!! I just bought him 44 pants and XL shirts. I'm so proud of him!!!

Prayers

Stac has been sick since November with "Guillain- Barre' Symdrome". I have tried to remain positive about the whole thing but it's getting to be too much. She was learning to live with it adjusting to knowing what her limits were, then she was weak and stumbled from the bathroom to the bedroom and fell against her nightstand and bed. She thought she was in pain from the Guillain-Barre' only, not knowing that she tore both rotator cuffs, and sprained her ankle.
Stacie is a strong and doesn't really let people know how much pain she is in including me. I thought that she was doing a lot better, but this time she couldn't hide it. Kev is the only one that knew the degree of pain. I feel so bad.
Please keep her in your prayers. What keeps me going is I know Heavenly Father hears our prayers.

Party Anyone :-)

We had a fun activity day with my girls. We made cupcake ice cream cones. I have made them when you bake the cake inside the cone but I like this way a lot better. You fill the cone with bubble gumballs ( or what ever candy you wish) this is used for weight. Then you take a big cupcake frost the top and put it upside down on the cone, then you take a mini cupcake and do the same. I love it because it looks like a soft serve cone. Each of the girls made a pink and blue one. Sarah made these.
Krystal is such a cute girl :-)

Then we made little party hats and blowers. I showed them how to make their own patterns to make them bigger or smaller. This age is so willing to learn, I love them so much. I really hate when they have a birthday and have to move up a class. I will lose this cute girl next week she will be turning 9 on the 11th of May :-(
