Autism Awareness Month (In the States anyway...)
It is Autism Awareness month in the States, and I have found a really cool slide-show about a boy (Teddy Willis) who is 11 and has Aspergers Syndrome. Aimee would like you all to take a look at it, as she says that he feels the same as she does.
The end quote of the slide-show was very moving to me;
"I just want people to treat me better like one of the other normal kids. If many people knew about Autism, then they might think about what the person's good at and not what the person isn't good at" Teddy
Well-spoken!!
Anyhow take a look here.

easter bunnies 2007
Happy Easter Everyone!Now, what to do when you need to give an easter gift to children that are food intolerant to all the yummy easter egg's... This year, I decided to get a little creative and make these cute little match-box bunnies, which you can find a how-to on kidscraftweekly. I managed to find some really cool badges for the kid's. A really neat find, I think! And they turned out so awesomely!!!
I hope you all have a blessed time this easter!
:) Hugs to you all!

YAY for broadband & school hol's!
Yippee! Yes, we finally bit the bullet and got broadband! :D {big HUGE wide grin}
And today is the last day of school before the easter school holidays - 2 weeks of having all my babe's at home. I LOVE it! I miss Aimee so much when she is at school, and this term has been particularly hard for her. She has spent a lot of it extremely stressed-out, with all sorts of new behavioural problems to boot. I know that when she is on holiday ie. having a break from all/most things social she is a different child. So YAY - we will now have 2 whole weeks together.
I am so loving being able to download podcasts and am currently listening to a podcast from Willow Creek Community Church.

Hands & Feet Project :) (& other news)
I feel like I should give you all an update on how my project for our local Stations of the Cross installation is going. Especially since I have been rather silent over the past week - I have an excuse, life got busy!
It's going well. I have painted around 40 (or more) can's - have a few idea's for a couple more, but I'm unsure if I will get the time. Especially, since I am going on a retreat weekend from Friday through Sunday. Easter is coming so fast, I feel I might miss it if I blink.
I am in real need for this weekend. It is run by Recreate, for mum's of special needs kids (aka, in my life, Aimee). It is going to be held at St. Francis Retreat Centre in Hillsborough, and I've heard the food is fantastic - which is, of course, all I am worried about...
While I am away, Jonathan will be looking after the girls, and hopefully taking them to an Easter Egg Hunt (run by Cession) at Lloyd Elmsmore Park. I know he will do well. He is awesome for looking after them, and is going to do it again in May/June when I go to the Mainly Music Conference and also down to Christchurch to see my lovely nephew and sister (and brother in law too!). What a good man I married!

You are an evangelical in the Wesleyan tradition. You believe that God's grace enables you to choose to believe in him, even though you yourself are totally depraved. The gift of the Holy Spirit gives you assurance of your salvation, and he also enables you to live the life of obedience to which God has called us. You are influenced heavily by John Wesley and the Methodists.
