Calling All Angels Orginally Sent JAN 9, 2006


Ok... It's me again, begging for favors. As we have stated in the past, Jon and I have no clue as to what we are doing. Thankfully, all we really have to do right now is hold the little guy and make faces at him (Jon was "reading" an animal picture book with Josh in his lap and making cute little animal sounds for each critter...then he came to a page with a rabbit on it. Given our proximity to the road and woods, his first inclination for a rabbit sound was "Squish!!!"...but he settled for, "What's Up Doc?!!"), but I need ideas. What were some really neat things your parents did to get you interested in life's simple joys when you were little -- or, better yet, do you remember teaching yourself any of these lessons? It doesn't have to be anything extreme... I remember being absolutely convinced as a little girl that fireflies were baby stars...and that if you could wish on the falling stars, you could wish on the tiny "rising stars"...to this day, as fireflies rise from the summer grasses, I make thousands of wishes on each twinkly light.

Need input, please. Thanks.

Dear Kim and Jon,

I think you guys are doing great. Just think of the love that little boy has is more love than most kids see in their life time. He is so adoreable. I always believed that if you love them that was enough. You can't always do the right thing or know the right thing to do. It will come to you. Have faith in yourself and you will see miracles. I believe in you both. Look at this way he made it this far. And he is cuter by the day and growing, just by your hands, and love. Anyway, if any of that made since. When the boys were little and cutting teeth. I took a wash cloth ran cold water on the end and then rubbed there gums that loved that. Never had to much trouble with them. The boys did so many things and to sit here and try and tell you mind is blank the only thing that came to me, was the time I made deviled eggs and Justin said he didn't want one with the devil he wanted one plain because the devil was bad. I still can see him standing in the kitchen so serious, and looking at me like I lost my mind seving him the devil. Anyway I wish you both all the best. And waiting for the weather to break so you can bring Josh back in to Wally world and see all the crazy people. Well take care and thanks for thinking of me when you sent the email. It was great. I just wish they had things like that when I had kids. See you soon. Sincerely Heidi Kirkbride
