I cannot even tell you how relieved I am to have this project completed! Everything went as planned and went well. He was surprised and even happy with the outcome, especially getting to see his son Jason and his friend Jimmy. Thank you to all those who were so willing to help ad take time to be there and for having such wonderful things to say. I appreciate you all!
The slide show was great and all credit goes to my brother Joel who did a fantastic job putting it together and running it! While Phillip was just a little embarassed at having to relive his life (and his love of cut of jean shorts!) I know he will enjoy having it to watch and remember all the things he's had and done in his life.
Phillip will get to spend the day with Jason on Tuesday and I know he is really looking forward to that. He hasn't seen Jason in 4 years since he lives in Alaska. Next year he will be moving to Germany (to one of the bases we were at when I lived there... how cool is that...I'm so visiting him!) He should be there for 3 years, so Phillip is enjoying every minute he gets with him.
And, for you that don't know, Kyle, Jonelle and Aly knew about the party for the last 2 months. They never said a word. THey even knew Jason was coming. They did a great job keep secrets!
Well, this week is the last week at work until the Dec 29th, so I am going to enjoy 10 days off. We close the daycare every year for a week at Christmas to give the employees some time with their families. It is definately a nice break away. This week however is really busy. We take the preschool kids to the nursing home up the street to hand out Christmas cards and sing carols. My Transition to Kindergarten class is visiting their Kindergarten Pen Pal class to decorate gingerbread houses. Friday is Polar Express Day and our Christmas party. Of course during all this I have physical therapy as well. So busy, busy.
