Hi Everyone!
My family and I had a very eventful weekend last weekend! We went too the home of my Dad's new wife's parents too visit them! I had a fun time, I went swimming in their in-ground swimming pool and hot tub, "which is in the house"! Then one day we went too the dollar store and I bought a few things I wanted!
Then we came home and had dinner, then the next day we were on our way home!
You should NEVER be afraid too try and do things that you enjoy! ALWAYS have fun when you can! NEVER dwell on the negative, always reach for the positive, if you do that, you will find your life can and will be MUCH happier and brighter!

LOVED ONES THAT ARE ALIVE IN OUR HEARTS AND ALWAYS BE WITH US WHERE EVER WE GO!
Hi Everyone!
Today is a very special day that I hold close too my heart! Today would have been my Uncle John's 61st birthday! He would be very proud of me for what I have accomplished! My Dad, his new wife, and I are looking into me moving into my OWN place! Sure, it's scary for me, but if you NEVER face reality and changes, you WON'T ever stop being afraid of life!
That's one of the things that my Uncle John always taught me, is that you work for what you want! You may NOT always get it, but at least you tried YOUR best!
He was a very GENEROUS man! He would help anyone in ANY time of need, he and my late Mom taught me a lot about the person I want too be!
If you don't get something prefect the first time, it's OK! Always try too improve yourself in anyway you can! If you need help, DON'T be afraid too ask! Family and friends are ALWAYS willing to help, YOU just have too be brave enough to ask! In return with asking family and friends for help YOU have too be willing to DO what you SAY you are GOING to do!
My Uncle John would be very proud too see how much I have accomplished and that I am the person who I am today because of it! I will NEVER stop learning ways to become independent! I find ways that are easier and the BEST for me! My loving friends and family are helping me succeed my goals in becoming a independent adult! That's all I can hope for!

MY FAMILY AND I HAD A WONDERFUL VACATION UP NORTH!
Hi Everyone!
My family and I went on a WONDERFUL vacation last week up North! We went fishing, swimming, and boating! It was just nice to relax and enjoy the week! We also celebrated my Dad's birthday while we were there! We also watched a lot of movies, played some C.D.'s and just had fun!
You should always take the advantage too enjoy your life whenever you can! The weather was BEAUTIFUL! One night we had a bonfire, smores and a glass of champagne on the pear and had a very fun boat ride to celebrate our vacation! So all in all we had a FANTASTIC week! I'm hoping we can do it again real soon!

PRECIOUS MEMORIES THAT WE ALL TREASURE AND WILL FOREVER LIVE ON IN OUR HEARTS FOR A LIFETIME!
Hi Everyone!
Today is a very special day that I hold very sacred in my heart! Today would have been my Mom "Vicky's" 54th birthday! I hope I have shown her how independent I've become! She would be very proud of me! I am where I am today because of her!
So please take my advice it's very IMPORTANT for you to become as independent as possible! Someday the people near and dear to our hearts are taken from us WAY too soon when we least expect it and we NEVER get too thank them for all that they have done for us! I feel bad because NOW I can't do anything in return too let my Mom know how special she really was, still is, and will always be!
So please, dear readers make SURE that you tell and show the people in YOUR lives how MUCH you appreciate ALL that they do for you! Also let them know that even if they have passed away they did a WONDERFUL job in helping you become the person that you are today!
"I OWE IT ALL TO YOU MOM, YOU'RE THE BEST THAT MONEY CAN BUY"! "THANKS FOR EVERYTHING"!

TODAY WAS A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR A BABY SHOWER!
Hi Everyone!
I just wanted too let all of you know that I went too a baby shower for a close family friend! It was a very nice shower with food and drinks! My family, friends and I just enjoyed ourselves! We had a very nice meal, then after the meal, we had chocolate cake and cookies, then we all sat down too open gifts!
When I'm around family and friends I DON'T feel out of place because they accept for who I am! That's a WONDERFUL feeling, knowing that no one cares what you like or how long it takes for you too get some where or do something! ALL that matters too them is that you are having a good time together and you are part of the crowd!
Sometimes people with Cerebral Palsy feel out of place or that they shouldn't be allowed too have the same experiences and fun as everyone else, because they need EXTRA help! Also you feel very embarrassed and sometimes you're left out of things that you really like or want too do because you physically aren't able too do what everyone else is doing! In MOST cases people are NOT willing too help you, but I'm VERY lucky that I have people in my life who WANT and are WILLING too help me with whatever I need!
PLEASE everyone, take my advice, try something NEW everyday BY YOURSELF! Then you know you can and will accomplish whatever you want too do in YOUR life!
I also have some more GREAT news! For the FIRST time EVER I cooked a entire meal by myself, I felt very independent! If you DON'T try things that you are scared of you'll NEVER learn how too NOT be afraid of doing them! When I live in my OWN place someday I know I WON'T be afraid of cooking, cleaning, and go on with things in my own life because I have prepared myself for the obstacles that I will face! But that doesn't mean that I'll throw in the towel and say "this is too hard" or "I can't do this" ! The MORE times that you practice things that you WANT to learn, the better you'll get at doing them! The MORE often you do them WITHOUT anyone's help, you'll SOON figure out that you can do them "ALL BY YOURSELF",you'll feel GREAT about yourself and be a happier person inside because of it!
You should take NEW steps "EVERY DAY" on being independent and living "ON YOUR OWN"!

I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A SAFE AND HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!
Hi Everyone!
I hope everyone had a safe and happy Fourth of July! I couldn't go too the fireworks this year but my neighbors had a Fourth of July party at their house so I watched them shoot off fireworks from my kitchen window! Then I watched a Fourth July special on T.V.!
That's one of the BIG problems with having Cerebral Palsy or "C.P."! Is that you can't enjoy special events or activities without the help of a friend or family member! You can't MAKE someone help you, people help you because they want too! Besides people also want too be your friend! But please remember "there is a difference" everyone that is nice to you always isn't your "friend" they are just being polite to you!
Someone that is your friend calls or emails you on a regular basis and really takes a interest in what's going on in YOUR life! You also do things together with that person or those people! Someone that is an acquaintance is someone that you DON'T know real well, you just know who they are!
It's also hard for people with C.P. too make friends because they aren't able too go anywhere by themselves without someone taking them some where or without riding public transportation which can be very expensive! Sometimes people can't afford public transportation or it's NOT available where they live! So in order to go somewhere and do things, people have to depend on someone else! Besides someone may NOT want too take the time or they don't have the time too bring you where ever you need to go! But a lot of people in the world are nice people and they help out because they want too and that they are just nice people being polite!
Some people also want too take an interest in someone with C.P. because too them it's a WHOLE different world! Just as for people with C.P. it's a WHOLE different world for them to have a "NORMAL" life!
It's been a nice few weeks for my family and I! We've had lots of company! My family from out of state came too visit last weekend with their two adorable grandchildren! They arrived on Sunday and went back home on Friday!
So please dear reader's take my advice! Your lives can be a WONDERFUL adventure, you just have to be BRAVE enough to try new things! If you try something new EVERYDAY! You'll find that your lives will be MUCH easier and NOT as scary! The world can be a VERY scary place but if we give it best our best shot WONDERFUL things will happen when we least except it!

A DAY OF SADNESS AND JOY ALL WRAPPED UP IN ONE!
Hi Everyone!
Today is a happy and sad day all wrapped up in one! Today is the fourth anniversary of my beloved Mom "Vicky's" death! Also we had a family member pass away and tomorrow is my Great Uncle's funeral! So it's been a difficult and trying few weeks for my family and I!
You should always be thankful for the family you have left because you NEVER know when your last day will be!
So that's why dear readers, it's VERY important for you to learn to become as INDEPENDENT as possible and learn to care for yourself as well as you can because your family aren't always going to be around too help and support you in your every need!
NEVER be afraid to try new things and if things are difficult and scary it's always ok to ask someone for help!
It's also very important that you have people in your life that you can talk with and can TRUST them too help you in any situation good or bad! I'm VERY lucky that I have special people in my life like my Dad, my Aunt, and my cousin's! Who TRUELY care about me and love for who I am and NOT what I look like!
If you ever want too live in your own place someday, it's VERY important for you to try something new every day! Sure things will be scary at first but if you NEVER try new things by yourself you'll NEVER succeed in becoming independent and live in your place and start a life for yourself!
So please dear readers always cherish and treasure the special people in your lives that mean the MOST too you because,you NEVER know when your last day will come!
