What a week!


I don't know who had a better week, us or the kids!? Jim and I just got home from celebrating our 10 year anniversary in Delray Beach, FL and the kids returned from 4 days in Disney World with grandma Koss! They ate breakfast with Mickey Mouse, rode Peter's Pan's Flight twice, went on a safari and ate popcorn every day. When we arrived home they couldn't stop talking over each other telling me all the fun things they did. I am blown away by grandma's ability to see and do so much! When I asked Kate what her favorite part of Disney was she said it was meeting Cinderella's evil stepmother because she was so nice to her! Grant said it was being with grandma every day. :)

Life Flight part 2




Today at the fire station was a special day. They had the U of M Survival Flight Helicopter for kids to see and touch. It was a weird feeling watching it land in front of us. Grant was grinning ear to ear because of the force of the wind. I had tears streaming down my face of pure joy and thanksgiving that I got to spend this moment with my healthy Grant. Grant was able to climb inside the helicopter and see where his isolete was held when he was just a few hours old. I told the Life Flight nurse helping us that Grant was flown in it as a baby. She looked and my bubbly boy and back and me and asked, "him?" I responded with a smile. What a gift from God he is!
