I love his room! I want to set up a t.v. like that for Colby and I definitely need to get one of those video monitors. I feel the same way about a hospital looking room. I try and hide as much of Colby's stuff as possible and he has tons of airplanes hanging from his ceiling. Happy really late birthday Samuel! I love his room!

I was going to do a hot air balloon this year with Colby and decorate his wheelchair but ran out of time and he just wanted to be spiderman any way. For the third year in a row! You make a great point about wanting to be "normal" versus doing what's best for the individual child. We have never taken Colby to see the Christmas lights at temple square because it would be miserable for him. The cold, the over stimulation, the drive down and back, the people. It would just be cruel to do that to him but we have several members of the family who think that we need to do it for him and they just don't understand how hard it would be. Oh well maybe one day they will until then we go in our neighborhood and he likes that just fine! Love the costumes especially Samuel’s!

I have been thinking about Samuel and your family lately and here you have a post up. I think everyone has just been crazy busy lately,including myself. Looks like everyone is doing well and you all look great. So happy to hear that Tanner is back home with you. Would love to hear his story about his missionary experience. Take care and love always, Hello Jewkes,

Great photos as usual. Tanner is home? Didn't he just leave? Time goes so quickly. It has been two years on Nov. 4 since Creig passed away. It seems long yet short at the same time. Samuel has such a happy face. I love his smiles. You are all still an amazing family. I send my love. I was so happy to find a post from you. Great photos as usual. Tanner is home?

You look so happy in your room. Your Mom did a great job there. I love all the pictures. Love the colors too! Enjoy you new decor, sweet boy! Wow Teresa, you are very talented! I am impressed. I would love for a plan of mine to come together like that. I also really love the "Worry ends where faith begins." So very true!! I have to remind myself of that often, but I get better as I mature in Christ. He is always good. Happy Belated Birthday, Samuel! You look so happy in your room. Your Mom did a great job there.

Or if not, that he's eventually able to use a device to type out/speak what he's thinking. I have FAITH that there's a bright mind in there, and I have HOPE that it will find a way to shine!
