Hi everyone...

Emmah has managed to still stay out the hospital, and if it weren't for us having to administer her daily shot, you'd never know that anything is wrong. She was out playing with the neighbor boys and her brothers and sisters today... mostly all day long too. Riding her scooter and in many ways was acting like a normal kid again... I mean she is, with an exception, a normal kid after all... and it's uplifting to see her having fun again. We went to the open house last night and Emmah was, to some extent the center of attention... everyone was just too happy to see her out and about... and that's good for her spirit too.

Wanted to also mention to those of you who DON'T already know, save your pop tabs. Emmah is collecting for Hope Children's Hospital so that they too can get a Ronald McDonald House. She and I made flyers for the school and got them doing it... so please help us out, it's a small thing that most people seem able to do with little effort and it means alot to Emmah. I'm actually surprised at how many tabs we've collected so far and that they keep on coming.
