This week has been a crazy one for me. First of all my sister's little boy...... newborn, has been jaundice. We have been really worried about cute, chunky Eli. He is finally doing better and I hope that the belly rubin lights are a thing of the past.

On Thursday, Febuary 21, 2008 Jennifer Magoffin/ Spagnolo woke up to find her 10 year old, Chad, totally blue. He was rushed to the hospital where he was hooked up to a ventolator. He had no sign of brain activity. He was given a blessing that said he had the choice to live or to go back to heaven. Later that evening, the family could no longer feel his spirit with his body and took him off the ventolator. Which I am sure was not an easy task to undertake. Friday Febuary 22, Chad's body stopped working. Chad is no longer with us in body, but his spirit will forever remain with those he loves. Chad was a very active little boy. He was VERY intellegent, if you know his mother, you know what I mean. My heart goes out to his family and I know that the prayers of all have been felt. I have been very sad for my friend.

Then, I have been under the weather. I don't think I have a cold anymore, but I am having problems with my eyes. Oh and (mom) the list........ my shoulder has been killing me. I think that I over used my arm and I have to remember that I can't function that way anymore.

Okay that is all for now. I just hope that next week is a better one....

Finally I've started it!!

Okay so I am in Wyoming now and I have some time to type. The snow is melting and I think I have a cold. I will just be writing some random thoughts on this post, so sorry if I tend to babble.

Tommy is really enjoying his work. He is happy and seems to have less stress out here. The warden is a great guy and has an open door policy which Tom really loves. He is getting to know some of the guys in town and making new friends. He is also the teacher for the elders courum..... (yes I know I cant spell) Poor guy has to scrape ice off his car windows every morning. hehehe......

Diane, me, well I am doing great! I have met some new friends and really think that things are starting to move along. I really miss my friends and family at home, but think that the move was a really good thing for the family. I am trying to get my stampin- up back up and working in this small town. I am also borrowing a sewing machine from "grandma Kate" and working on some things with that.

Sariah is loving school. She has told me several times that she is happy here and that she is learning how to love math. I used to fight with her to go to school, but now she is ready and has a good time there. She has met some new friends and done some great things with the school. She also made her valentines cards for her class this year. Yeah I know I gotta post some pictures, I will get to it :P......

Julia has adopted some grandma's. She went up to the Relief Society President and asked her if she could call her grandma..... It was so cute she couldn't say no. Julia then walked up to Sister Kelly and told her. "I am sitting with my other grandma" lol it was cute but Kate Kelly said.... "forget grandma Barbara, I'm grandma Kate!!!" Julia has sure gotten into the hearts of some of the older ladies. They are so cute with her. Oh and the other day Julia said to Tommy, "you need a table on you heart like mommy" A TABLE!!!! hehehehe where does this kid get these things??

Last but not least...... Chloe. She is a funny little dog..... She wants to go outside but doesn't like the snow.... she also freezes her feet. It is funny to watch her prance around and try not to touch the ground. She will NOT pee on the snow. She is funny! She has a "special" toy and once she is done with it, she asks like she is kicking dirt on it. She also likes to bury her bones in clothes or whatever she can find.

Well thats all I got for now...... Hope to keep everyone updated from now on... LATER
