Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2007. We were driving from Fort Lauderdale to Key West, FL. Along this long drive, we stopped to walk around and take a break. We came across a store with all sorts of shells and they had these cute looking hand shaped seats. Mattie got a kick out of sitting in a hand!
Quote of the day: Your kidney stone test came back. You did not pass. ~ Unknown
Last night I did not fall asleep until 4am this morning. I was dealing with pain and discomfort and I was truly hoping the kidney stone would pass. It hasn't! Clearly this 3mm nightmare prefers living inside of me. So in jest, I am posting kidney stone humor.
In January, my friend in cancer, delivered to me 25 hand crafted Mattie Miracle ornaments. She made these beauties for a special gift to give to our core Foundation volunteers. This coming Tuesday, we are hosting a little 10th anniversary celebration dinner with our devoted volunteers.
It is my hope to surprise them with gifts and to let them know that as payment for these gifts, we made a personal donation to my friend's Foundation, which grants iPads to children/teens with cancer. So in essence the gifts are also supporting children with cancer.
Peter and I have slowly wrapped each of these gifts and they are now ready to go for Tuesday's dinner.
Of course, no day is complete without a long Sunny walk. We took him back to Roosevelt Island, which he loves. It truly felt more like spring today and even the robins were out and about. Can you see them bathing in a puddle?

I am a Canadian Goose fan. They really are about the only real sign of life in nature during the winter months.
What the Island looks like now before the leaves unfurl. But soon this will all change and it will be back to being lush and green.
