Beckham

I just read the Scadlock's blog and found out that Beckham is back in the hospital again with an infection. Please keep this little guy and his family in your prayers.

Jake's heart

Valentines day is a special day for the Scadlock family. They are the family that has Jake's heart. It beats in the chest of their beautiful little boy, Beckham. Every Valentines day they mention Jake in their blog, www.scadlock.blogspot.com. Jake's heart is so loved by this family. And we love Beckham. His life is a struggle, but his warm smile says it all. He is such a happy little boy. We can not express the joy we feel knowing that this family is taking such good care of Jake's heart. The love they have for a little boy they do not even know is overwhelming. But then we don't know Beckham, but we love him and his family like they are ours. It is amazing how these two families have come together through a little heart. Beckham just had another run in with the hospital, but at this time he is home and doing well. We can't thank Kim and Nate enough for letting us share in Beckham's life, for letting us watch the growth of our little heart.

Please remember to be an organ donor. Because of Jake, not only is Beckham alive, but two people have been giving the gift of sight. How wonderful it must be to be giving this gift. What a wonderful gift Holly and Andy gave by making the hard disision to donate Jake's organs. My children are my heros. And Jake is the biggest hero of all! His life may have been short, but the gifts he left behind have brought so much joy to so many. How many of us touch so many people like our little Jake did? I am so proud of him!

On another note, I have one week off, yeah!! It is a much needed break, I just wish the weather was going to be better. On Thrusday Tom and I are going to Niagara Falls for two nights just to get away. I know, who goes to Niagara Falls in February? I don't care if it is going to be cold, just to get away for a few nights will be like heaven! I am taking Scout down to stay with Holly and Andy and Ben is so excited to have him staying for a few days. He is hoping Scout will sleep with him, good luck with that! He might, he loves that little boy. When Alex was born, I took Scout down with me and one night I went to brush my teeth. When I went in to check on Ben, Scout was curled up at the bottom of his bed! He wouldn't stay there, but he might sleep with him if I'm not there. We will see!

That's it from here. Have a good week, I know I will!

When Tom and I were in Canada we played the WII with Mike and Sandy, now we are hooked. We decided to get one so we order one from Toy-R-us. Now I can't wait to get it. I just have to remember that I have to get up and go to work in the morning and not stay up playing until midnight! I can not function without sleep, and lately I seem to need more. I think I need some sunshine! I am so tired of driving to work in snow I could scream! And when will it get light in the morning? I have been driving to work in the dark forever. I have noticed that the sky is a little lighter in the a.m. this week, so I guess it is getting there. On a sad note, there was a fire today at the Alasha Farms, one of the first quaker farms in New York and the home of a friend of ours. Most of the damage was on the third floor, with fire breaking out through the roof. The fireman were able to get out a lot of the antiques, pictures and meaningful items. Tom said they did a good job.
That's it for now.
Till next time,
Crystal
