Happy Birthday to my Sweet Boy!

Happy Birthday to my sweet boy! Today JJ turns 2. He has been such a blessing to our family. I have very mixed emotions about this day....my baby is growing up too fast, and yet it is so exciting to see him grow!

We love you so much big boy!

Another Family Update...

Hello everyone! We are all doing pretty well in the Splan household. It seems that the sickness has finally decided to end for awhile....at least for now. Today my family and I headed over to my sisters house for some much needed family time. My mom is down from Michigan, and we were all antsy to see her. It was a very enjoyable and relaxing day! My husband is preparing for a little business trip to Charleston next week, and Miracle and JJ are both looking forward to JJ's birthday party next weekend. With Nanna visiting, the party is sure to be more fun!
Last week was a sad one for the Meyer Center, the school I work at. Our school was started in 1954 by an orthopedic surgeon named Leslie C. Meyer. He had a burden to offer therapy services to physically disabled children at as young of an age as possible. He passed away over last weekend and his funeral was on Thursday. I did not know this man very well but have a very great understanding of what his vision has done for hundreds of children. His funeral was awesome. I only wish he could have been there to hear everyone speak so highly of him. He sure did make an imprint on many lives!
Aside from lots of business, we have all been enjoying the arrival of fall. I did make it quite clear a few posts ago that we could do without fall. This, however, is only because of the awful spiders! I still enjoy the crisp smell of the air in the morning and evenings. I love to watch the leaves change colors, and I love that the fall time change is getting closer:) I hate how dark it is when we get up in the morning--- it makes me feel so much more tired! I am especially looking forward to the holidays this year. I have a lot of family coming to SC for Thanksgiving, and hopefully we will be traveling to Michigan for Christmas. We will still be crazy busy but getting to see family always makes life look a bit brighter!
Well the children are calling. I need to get off the computer and get some household needs taken care of. Have a wonderful weekend and especially enjoy the Lord's day!
