We are still waiting for the contract for the service dog to come, we are trying to brainstorm some fundraising ideas we can use once we are able to start that leg of this little journey. If you have any great ideas, pass them our way.
Sunday night we made our annual Gingerbread House. Every year my family makes them, and we have quite a few rules. The icing can only be white, it must all be edible, etc. This year I tried all night to get Deeds to help me decorate the house. I thought he would get a big kick out of the candy. Instead the conversation went like this:
Mommy: “JD want to help mommy decorate the gingerbread house?”
JD: “No.”
10 minutes later
Mommy: “Deeds, what should we do next?”
JD: “Play iPod!”
Needless to say he wasn’t much help. At the end of the night he did help add a few last-minute touches, and so now he is convinced it is all his and no one else should get near it. I’ve had to put it up pretty high so he can’t get to it and so it’s not really being enjoyed at our house since the only one tall enough to see it is Daddy. We should find a neighbor to give it too so someone can enjoy it.

We could do a multi family garage sale… I know it won’t me nearly enough money… but it will be something.
