I have been slow to post video and pictures that were taken the night of Christian’s birthday. It was a special night with a lot of laughter, good music and a few tears. Stories were told and new memories made. Our Spaghetti Thursday group grew by one as we welcomed Morgan Barber into the fold. 🙂 She did a great job of videoing the wishing lanterns and made Timmy sing Wagon Wheel about four times before she decided she had the perfect version. But the most touching moment of the night was Shelton writing a message to Christian and Taylor and Stephanie helping launch his lantern. This seven year old writing…..
“happy birth day love you if you were here I would give you a hug”
A special thanks to all of Christian’s friends who never miss our monthly Thursday Spaghetti Nights even though I know they have better things to do than to hang out with me and Todd. Christian probably never realized just how good of friends he had; never having to test those friendships. But we know how good of friends you were and still are to Christian and by default to us. And though childish the innocence of this statement says it all…
“We’ll be Friends Forever, won’t we, Pooh?’ asked Piglet.
Even longer,’ Pooh answered.”

Video coming soon….. 🙂
I watched him write that message. I was heartbroken and filled with joy at the same time. Children are so precious
