A Ray of Light

As many people are looking for work in central Oregon, I have finally found a part time job in an area I am passionate about, senior care. It is only part time right now and is still not enough to get all of our bills paid, but it is a start. Sparrow club of Sisters has been a God-send, and we have been able to use our funds there for the bills this last month. Thanks you so much to all of our friends in Sisters. Without you, we would be lost. I have the opportunity to test with Seattle Police in May, so keep your fingers crossed that the testing goes well there.
Christian is doing fantastic! He has learned many different sign language signs seeing as how he has refused to start talking outside of the typical mama, dada, nana, duck and yeah. He is sooooo smart. He loves his fishy "Dorothy #2" Dorothy #1 decided that it was time to take an upside down nap last week. Every morning when C wakes up, he points to Dorothy #2 and wants to feed her. What a responsible little guy! He had the flu pretty bad two weeks ago. I was so scared because from the day he was born, doctors have told us that even a cold or flu could kill him due to his severe heart condition. It took about a week for him to recover, and now that our carpets have been shampooed, things are much better. Please continue to keep his health in your prayers.
Another bit of wonderful news, a little baby boy with the same heart condition as Christian recently received a heart! Little Leighton Harper (caringbridge.com/visit/leightonharper) made it through his transplant surgery and has made it home! Please also keep him and his family in your prayers.
We had Christian's pictures done a couple of weeks ago, so please enjoy the new photos! Happy spring to everyone and be sure to hug and kiss your loved ones!

Isn't he just the most precious little guy!?
