Hi Sweet Chickies!And, Happy Pink Saturday...
Oh my goodness, they sure roll around quickly, don't they?
I hope you're having great weather and your posies are growing well.
Do you have a fabulous vacation in the planning?
We've had such crummy weather here. I'm hoping my posies start looking a smidge better soon.
Aren't these delish?
YUMMMY!
My dear friend brought me a huge bouquet from her garden a few days ago.
Don't you love girlies who share? :-)
And, am I tickled pink???Oh my....
You can't imagine how much!
My precious little grandson just turned TEN.
I can hardly believe it.
It was an awesome week in this little guy's life...........and HEAVEN for his Mommy and Grandma.
I've talked about this in a previous post....he has Asperger's Syndrome. (It's on the Autism spectrum).
And, his dad was killed in a car accident when he was 2 1/2.
He was struggling at school, unable to make friends and having a tough time with a teacher who should have retired YEARS ago.
I have NOTHING constructive to say about this woman, so I'll just leave it there.
My daughter did a lot of research and found another school in his district that she thought would suit him better.
He went from hanging his head every day when he walked out of school to one of the happiest kids ever. He began to LOVE school and was soooo sad when the end of the year came.
His teacher was WONDERFUL beyond belief.
Mrs. G.....we're so grateful to you.
You ARE WONDERFUL.
My daughter had a birthday party for him last year and only THREE kids came. They were her friend's children.
It was heartbreaking.
This is his party this YEAR!THIRTEEN KIDS CAME. THIRTEEN!
It makes me tear up just to say that.
In two short months he DID make friends. So much for the atmosphere at the old school.The party was at the bowling alley across the street from his new school.
Even the principal walked over to wish him Happy Birthday.
WONDERFUL!
He just finished third grade.
He's been staying with me for the past week. I always lay on the bed with him at night so we can talk or read before we say his prayers.
We were talking about his past two teachers last night.
He told me that they did an art project in second grade where they were supposed to tear construction paper into shapes to signify parts of the earth... Sky, grass, clouds etc.
This kid is one of the MOST artistic kids EVER.
He added two trees to his picture.
The teacher TORE IT UP.
She was MAD at him because he added something he wasn't supposed to add.
My heart broke.
REALLY.
How could anyone be so cruel?
That is just unbelievable to me.
I love him so much. He has so much to give. He is truly my joy in life.
Thank you Jesus for giving my boy a fresh start in a place that really embraces kids.
ALL KIDS.
I am so grateful.
Thank you for coming today.
Thank you for sharing my joy.
I love you tons!
Have a wonderful weekend.
Huggies and LOVIES.
Spence
More lovely pinks too!
