Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad

Today is my mom and dad's 9 year anniversary. For a present I gave them some of my best laughs. I feel better today. I even tried to walk, but the pain medicine made my legs like jello. Speaking of food I keep asking for some, or at the very least for some water, but no one will give me anything. I did get a huge dinosaur balloon today from my friends Bryce, Parker, and Grant. He was actually a little scary at first, but after I brushed his teeth with my spongesicle I laughed in the face of fear. Really I just laughed at the dino face. I am off the happy meds (epidural) and on to some sleepy meds. I just took a four hour nap. Yeah I know, that's crazy. I'm watching Bambi now. How does that Thumper do that leg thing?

Eli,
We figured that if a big dinosaur living in the woods next to your house didn't scare you, then surely you could handle a balloon! We are glad you faced up to your fears and took care of his halitosis. You have certainly proven yourself these past few months that you are a brave little boy. Hang in there. You are doing GREAT!
Much love,
The Boyds

Eli, Mom and Dad,
Can I try a spongesicle? I like green! Yummy! Alyson and I went to see Cooper, MiMi(sp?)and Silas today. They were excited to have company. It must be boring without you guys home but they were doing good. I miss you all. Hope you 3 have a wonderful anniversary with Bambie, Thumper and the dinosaur in your cosy room. I'm so thankful to our Father for the great progress.
I love you,
Mrs. Terri (and Mr.Curt too)
