if i must, i must

i have received specific instructions from many people that i MUST start blogging again, especially since many of you haven't heard an update about baby kaiyah. so i will, even though there are others of you that haven't blogged even longer than me (not saying any names, AIMEE, not to mention CHERYLENE).

first off, baby kaiyah. nearly 2 weeks ago tara and ian decided to take her home to be with them. the doctors were pretty much giving her no hope, saying that nearly her entire brain was dead, and that there wasn't much they could do. so she went home to be with her family for as long as she had left. and....suprisingly, she is doing great! she actually took to the bottle quite well and has been gaining weight! she is still absolutely tiny, of course, but everyone is thrilled at her progress. i was praying for a miracle from the beginning, and i think that one may have occured! thanks to all of you who prayed as well. i will keep you posted on her progress.

the other thing that i really want to blog about is my second first anniversary present. (which is driving my crazy at this particular moment) but i don't want to blog about it until i can post a picture, which resides in my digital camera. i just haven't taken the time to figure out how to get it from my camera to my computer. so. perhaps tomorrow morning i will post a picture.

today is a glorious day off after a long work week, so i am looking forward to relaxing out on the pond on my new blue inflatable raft that i nearly passed out on while blowing it up with my very own breath. i'd also like to go to the local salvation army and see if they have any puzzles for cheap. (our addiction is starting to cost us a lot) then josh and i are going to see charlie and the chocolate factory tonight...one of my most favourite children's books. hmmmm..looks to be a lovely day. :)
