Tonight's picture was taken in the spring of 2006. Mattie was in preschool and as you can see was wrapped up in toilet paper. Mattie loved paper and tape. In fact, Mattie's teacher once told me that he went through the classroom's year long tape supply in one semester. You would be amazed all the fun Mattie could have with tape. His teachers learned that lesson quickly. But it was in that first year of preschool Mattie really blossomed as a little person. He made friends, learned the art of sharing, compromising, and listening to his teachers and friends. All life skills that Mattie soaked up and served him well into elementary school and his cancer battle.
Quote of the day: I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house. ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
Still dealing with an intense headache today, but at least able to function. Sunny and I went for our usual walks today. The weather was glorious.... in the 80's. Lots of people around me were demanding cooler weather. What on earth is wrong with them? It will get cold soon enough. In the meantime, enjoy the sun, the greenery all around you, and people out and about.
