A Ramp for Noah

My Mom and Dad recently built a sun-room on the back of their house. Part of the plans was to build a ramp so it would be easier for us to go visit. 

The look on Noah's face when we had gone up the ramp and into the new sun-room was priceless. His jaw dropped and he just kept looking around.

Thanks Mom and Dad for being one of our biggest supporters. I guess Noah needs to go visit Grandma and Grandpa more now.....

Noah/ Kehres Day 2

Scott and I had a great day in Marblehead. It was a beautiful day by the lake.

It was a bit cold but the view was amazing. Next time we'll have to pack a picnic lunch.

While we were gone Noah got to enjoy his day with the Kehres'. We are so blessed to have someone we can truly trust and they love having him around. He went on a walk and cried when they went back home, so they went for another walk. I guess he is pretty easy to spoil because it sure didn't take the Kerhes long for Noah to wrap them around his little finger.

Noah even got to help the Kehres get their camper at the KOA ready for the summer.

Talk about being spoiled, Scott and I were to be out spending time together without Noah and we couldn't help ourselves when we found some pjs we knew he would like. How can you not spoil a face this cute? 

I would just like to thank the Kehres' from the bottom of our hearts for making respite not scary anymore. Noah gets so excited when we tell him he is going to your house and Scott and I have really enjoyed our time together. Once a month just seem enough only because Noah enjoys spending time with you.

17 Years Ago

Seventeen years ago today Scott and I had been married for 10 years, Morgan was 7yrs old and in the first grade, Emily was 5yrs old and in preschool and Noah was 15mths old. I remembered watching Scott being wheeled away for his cancer surgery. It was a scary time for us. I was praying that we had caught it soon enough and that he would be okay. What would I do without him? Noah had just been diagnosed and the girls were so little. It was clearly a rough time in our family's life. I praise God everyday that Scott is still cancer free. I can't imagine my life without my soulmate. 

I love you , Scott!!! You have been my rock through thick and thin.

Happy 27th Anniversary Scott

  

Wow, 27 years....       A lot has happen in the last 27 years. We've had seen some extreme highs, like our 3 beautiful children. We've been through some very extreme lows. Parenting a special needs child is the hardest thing anyone could go through. Being a spouse as well as a special needs parent is even harder. Raising a special needs child takes a lot of extra time. It can drain you emotionally, physically and even spiritually. Sometimes there isn't much time left in the day to focus on each other. Sometimes you have to take a step back and make some big changes in your life in order to make everything work. The last month and a half I've seen some great things happening in our marriage and I can't wait to see what God has in store for us.

Happy Anniversary Scott, I love you!!!!!
