These are just a few pics of Sara Crawford in her "Army" pj's. I got these for 30 cents!!! I know that they are for little boys, but I just couldn't pass them up!

Pack-Pack

These are pictures of Sara Crawford taking her last cup of the night, and yes, she is wearing her "pack-pack". This particular night she had to wear it to sit to take her last cup and she had to have it in her bed that night before she would lay down and sleep. This is the same child that just a few weeks ago cried at school every time I dropped her off!!! Kids are funny!

These are some pictures of Sara Crawford and her friends Presley and Preston. These children are twins and they attend church with us. They both take up so much time with her and are just the sweetest children that I have ever been around. The two of them were born very prematurely and they have 2 different kinds of cleft pallettes. They have had countless surgeries and endless problems, and they still have some of the best attitudes that I have ever dealt with. Recently, they had to have surgery on their sinuses, because they were still the size of babies' sinuses.


Please constantly remember these two as they face huge giants in the world. As they grow older, their difference in appearance becomes such a HUGE part of their lives. Just as with anything, I am so used to them and how wonderful they are, that I do not even notice that anything is different. It is growing increasingly hard on the two of them.
They are wonderful friends for Sara Crawford, because they are such great role models!

Pumpkin Party

Yesterday, a group from my church got together and we all took the kids to the Farmers Market and let each of them pick out a pumpkin. This first little pumpkin is Sara Crawford's first pumpkin to "help" decorate. What you did not get to see is the 3 times we actually had to decorate this tiny little thing, because my child did not quite get the concept of actually leaving the decorations on the pumpkin. We had a wonderful time.

Sara Crawford LOVES cookies!!! That is one word that, after her first taste, she has remembered with no problem. She says in two very distinct syllables (coo-key). On Saturday, I decided that she needed some variety in her cookie dining. I thought that an oreo would probably be a nice change for her. So, the result..... I think she likes them!!!!!
