I am trying out the new timeline feature in FB. I wanted to preserve some of the more memorable posts, especially the things the kids said and did.
2009 was an especially difficult year for us. I am glad it is behind us and am looking forward to a bright and exciting 2012.
2009 in review...
12/24/2009 - "Imagine you are at church, singing "Silent Night", holding your burning candles, and you hear one lone voice singing "Happy Birthday to You". Of course, the lone voice was my son Caden."
12/8/09 "is thankful for little boys who wake me up with choruses of "I am hungry, I am thirsty, I wet the bed" How boring my life would be without them."

11/25/09 - "Caden threw his binkie in the trash this morning. He said he was a big boy now."

11/12/09 - "Fill in the blank: "I found _________ under the sofa while vacuuming."
(in 2011 I can say I found 2 weeks worth of dirty socks and underwear under a dresser while vacuuming."
11/2/09 "Logan says "Mom, if we had water in the yard, we could get a boat, actually" ."
10/23/09 - "is amazed that Mason will not eat table food, but will eat sand and acorns."

9/24/09 - "CADEN UPDATE: The biopsy for Caden has returned. He tested positive for an allergy of the esophagus and negative for a fungus in the esophagus. He will be taking Prevacid (for the erosion of the
esophagus) and an oral steroid. Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers."
9/18/09 - "had a dozen crows in her front yard this morning. Talk about creepy!"
9/11/09 - "You know you are in trouble when you have the following conversations with your 4 YEAR OLD! ME: Logan, have you made any new friends at school Logan: Yes, her name is **** ME: What about boys, have you made friends with any of them? Logan: They have to be pretty. My friend Taylor (girl) is pretty. He is already girl crazy. LOCK UP YOUR DAUGHTERS"
