Thanks. We have to usually take several before we actually have a picture where both the kids are smiling at the camera at the same time.

My grandchildren are the same way. You have to bribe them to pose for a picture with a smile, by telling them they can do any silly face they want for the next one. Sad, but it works. lol.
Cute boys!!!

Lori you are such a kind and caring friend. You just being there for her is the best medicine in the world for her. Stay strong sweetie and remember to take of your emotional needs as well. We are here for you if you need to talk to someone.

Hugs

Okay, I have to tell everyone something. Its not about quilting, but its about a woman that I happened to have seen a post about the wii game Animal Crossing that shehad posted but had gotten deleted minutes after she posted it. Anyways her name is Trisha. I believe that she has done the secret pal swap in the past. Anyways, I was able to have seen the post before it got deleted and had written her name down so I wouldnt forget who she is.
So this game Animal Crossing is just a no brainer game, you go fishing, catch bugs, talk to little animal characters no violence of any kind oh and you buy furniture and things to furnish you houses. So we finally were able to connect to each others Wii's and the past few nights we have gone visiting in her little world and shes come to our little world. Charles has had SO MUCH fun playing it with her that he has been happy, smiling, laughing ALOT. What a great time Charles is having. She has wii speak which makes it to where we can hear her talking instead of her typing. We don't have a wii speak yet but we are going to. We can't wait to get it. And I can't wait to play and see how much happier Charles will be when hes able to talk to her and play. :)
Sometimes something so simple and stupid and mindless can make someone very happy and totally put them in a better mood and give them something to look forward to in life and that is what Trisha has done with the game Animal Crossing. :) Does anyone else have the game? And like to play it? So I want to say THANK YOU TRISHA. :)
