Our smaller fish tank went bad, and had to be changed--lost all the fish in that tank.
Oscar is in our big tank, and the girls are listening to him eat--it kind of makes a sound like tinkling glass!

Mahree re-wrote the story of the "Emperor Wore No Clothes" at school,
and has to read it to us every night!
She also has a tattoo on her cheek that her friend, Stephanie gave her (temporary, of course!)
She picked this pose!

Day 26, Tuesday, January 26, 2010
Simeon had an EEG today to determine if he is having any seizures.
He did SO well. He is normally a boy who is in constant motion--jumping, running, up and down and waving his arms--he laid there almost perfectly still for the hour of putting the leads on his head, for the test, and for the removal of the wires--as well as cleaning off the conductor paste!
This was definitely a real answer to prayer.
He even made it back in plenty of time to go horseback riding with his class!

Day 25, Monday, January 25, 2010
Cody was so funny tonight! He had a wooden hammer and a toy stethoscope, and he put it on, and "listened" to his heart. The totally funny thing was that he was laughing so hard; he had Bonnie and me in stitches!!
Good ol' Doc Cody--gave us the best medicine!!

Bonnie is holding one of the cavies in the pet room--the more common name for a cavy is guinea pig!
When Bonnie was in 4H she competed with many kids who have no visible disabilities--and she came in first place!
She has many cavy trophies to help her remember those moments--and she is now a cavy mentor to the youngest 4Hers in our Club!

Merica loves her kitty cat, Angel. Angel was one of our foster cats who came with 4 one day old babies. All 5 of them were very sick, and all of the babies eventually died. It took a while to nurse Angel back to health, but she's now doing very well! She's about 2 years old.
When Merica was given a choice between getting a kitten or keeping Angel, she chose Angel! I think Angel is very glad she did!

Spencer with his very own cat, Lucy. Lucy comes running the minute someone turns on a faucet--she loves to drink water from the tap! Sometimes she will even go to a sink, and cry for someone to come and turn the water on for her!

Rosabeth with her doggie, Ozzie.
That dog adores her, and the feeling is mutual.
In the background is the motor home we are storing for Ryan and Sandi while they are on the mission field in Ecuador.
Temps today were in the mid twenties, and the sun was out! Beautiful sunrise this morning.

Once a month Cody and Simeon have their Project Lifesaver bracelets' batteries changed. These bracelets use radio waves, and could potentially help find them if they walk off.
We were amazed how compliant the boys were tonight!
These bracelets are available thru our Sheriff Department and are currently only available for individuals with autism.
This project is sponsored by the Autism Society.
Anne and her daughter, Leah, are the volunteers who facilitate the program.
There is only a nominal monthly fee for the peace of mind knowing we have this service available if we need it!

Meika is saying "Hi!"--note the cooler in the hallway behind Meika and the towel in the refrigerator door! Our 'frig has been on the fritz, and we have been using the outside, the cooler, and the small refrigerator downstairs. Just a bit inconvenient, but doable! Hopefully the last part will arrive tomorrow! If so, our repair person should be here on Tuesday, 1/5.
