that is mca on the phone with frankie and dangerboy from 971 ZHT giving us secret santa. read the letter from his student.

omg. i cried and cried. i just can't get over how amazing people are. i told myself that nothing good could ever come from my sweet angel dying, but the love and support of those around us has really made me have hope in humanity again. anyone who knows me (especially my peeps at work) know i am sarcastic, mean, and ornery with walls up so high so i can't feel anything. but with anthon's birth and death the love and compassion just hasn't stopped. and i am so unbelievably humbled at the good works of the people in our lives. even those that barely know us.

and i can't forget to mention these teenage kids who literally worship my husband. he comes home everyday from his job everyday loving what he does. teaching middle school kids - crazy!! but he loves those kids so much, and they love him. not only did they nominate him for this secret santa, but they raised A LOT of money as an entire school for anthon's medical expenses.

so as you can tell, i am just in awe. i OFTEN forget how much love there is surrounding our family. thank you to all that have been so gracious, concerned, caring, everything. happiness is in our home today :)

happy holidays

henry has seen santa 3 times already this year. and he loves him. like run around in circles like a dog chasing his tail love him. he has been telling all the santa's that he wants a house with "guys" for christmas. and a toy story lego train. good thing that is what we got.
