The past few weeks we have been absolutely busy as bee just enjoying life. The weather, other than today's storms, has been just fantastic and it has allowed us to get outdoors to take care of some much needed things. The grass is growing like crazy and its been very time consuming trying to keep 7 acres mowed. The garden has been planted and with the help of Dad, we are growing corn, okra, tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, zucchini, squash, sunflowers, watermelon, and cantaloupe.
The garden is also time consuming but I LOVE IT and I enjoy being out there watching stuff we planted grow. On top of these things, Allison and I just recently spent the entire day planting flower beds in front of the house.
We went and bought the kids on of those John Deer Gator ride on things ( pics to come) to help keep them engaged while outdoors. Madison loves it and Dawson hates it ( go figure) The first time they rode in it Madison was driving and Dawson was in his seat beside her. She took off and he kinda slipped out of the side and she ran over him. I can't imaging why he doesnt like riding in that thing anymome.... hmmmm
Dawson is doing just so awesome. He continues to escape any side effects of having Infantile Spasms. He is just a normal, happy, healthy kid with no seizures. God certainly has been so good to us!!! I find myself thanking him multiple times daily for healing Dawson. How do you say thanks for something like that??
Katelin continues to do really good with her diabetes. She is busy playing softball this year and I am just so proud of how well she is playing. I find myself really looking forward to her games.
So once again I apologize for not posting for so long. We have been just been so busy these days. At the end of the day exhaustion sets in and that's all she wrote for us.
We are really looking forward to Dawson's one year seizure free party at the end of this month. We cant wait to celebrate this wonderful occasion.
I know there are many people who come across this blog,and I also know there are many of our friends and family who read this as well. So this is your open invitation to attend. We want as many people who lifted Dawson up in prayer during that time to come and attend. Right now we are kinda leaving it as a day long party. A sort of " come when you can and leave when you have to " event, with the food being focused around lunch time. We wont be sending out formal invitations, as there are literally hundreds of people who we would want to send them to,and that's just not possible to do. We would love to have an idea of how many people to expect, so if you are able to come Saturday May 30th please Email us and let us know you are attending. You may call or text as well if you already have our cell phone numbers. We hope you will be able to come and celebrate this miracle with us.
We love all of you so much and we hope to see you at the end of the month!!
Jeff and Allison
