Answered prayers....

Thank you so much again for all of your love and prayers for our boys....We were blessed to learn last Friday that our boys don't have Glaucoma. The babies' eye doctor in Danville personally made an appointment with the head of the Opthamology Dept. at Children's Hospital in Philadelphia...so we're thinking he knows a thing or or too...Dr. Mills is actually one of the leading "Pediatric Glaucoma" experts in the United States and he couldn't be more kind. Alexander & Evan actually have something called "Pseudo Glaucoma"...Again because they are "preemies"...their little eyes aren't as developed as they should be, and if looking on the inside of their eyes certain things "mimic" the idea of Glaucoma....but they will grow out of this by school-age. We all breathed a BIG sigh of relief and immediately said our thank you prayers.... again! The boys were so good....I couldn't have sat there for all of the eye poking they received. They loved the waiting area....lots of books and other children to play with! As usual they made friends with children much older then themselves and really had a great time. Thank you so much again for all of your love and support and Faith......I can't even imagine my life without any of those things..... Lots of love and prayers to you all.... Melissa, Matthew, Evan and Alexander Here's a photo of the boys with Dr. Wilson on their last visit to Danville...

The boys' Easter Day

Evan & Alexander had a wonderful Easter Day...The bunny was very good to them at all of the homes he visited and they really enjoyed church. Alexander (once again) donned his Rosary Beads in church and began to bless people going up for Communion by touching them with the cross on his Rosary! We don't really know where he got this from...but we don't discourage it either.. Perhaps we have a priest in the making! Hope you enjoy our photos as much as we enjoyed our day...xo

(The first photo is the babies finding their baskets (Evan on the right is already losing his kneesocks), The second shows Evan very happy to have found breakfast bars..how did the bunny know?, The third is Daddy and his boys singing "Happy Birthday" to Uncle Edward (Evan is on the left). ***Remember if you click on a photo..it gets larger***

How you know...you're an "old" Mommy

Evan & Alexander love to watch Mommy get ready each morning...combing her hair, putting on makeup etc....They like to reach up onto the sink & run away with her lipgloss, brushes etc... Today, Alexander reached up and grabbed Mommy's Capzasin cream (she uses for her back). Without thinking & as usual Mommy began to chase Alexander, he laughing like a madman....as Mommy began to say, "Hey Monkey...give me my 'arthritis cream'.....Monkey boy...Mommy wants her 'arthritis cream'....!" Suddenly it struck me exactly how funny this sounded out loud...Funny or sad....so I went with funny!!!

Let's not forget these....Happy Easter (again) !!

Easter 2006

Happy Easter!!

Happy Easter to all of Our Family and Friends~This year the boys realized how scary a large rabbit sitting on a throne can be and didn't seem to share Mommy and Daddy's enthusiam for the Easter photo...Mommy thought it was cute anyhow....Knowing Mommy she'll probaby drag it out each time the boys bring a date home...and she'll most likely show it to all of her new friends at the old-age home the boys send her too.....The photo (no matter how traumatized they look) only took 30 seconds at most. Afterwards back off the bunny land platform the boys were happy to wave at the "bundy"....from a safe distance....Hope the bunny is good to all of you!! Lots of love and prayers to you all.....xo
