This and That and Kennedy!

First- Prayers for sweet Kennedy. She is a sickie one right now. She is staying over night in the hospital to get her back on track. When she gets sick her body does it up real good and it becomes mission impossible to keep her out of the hospital. Pray she feels better fast.

Found out today that Kaitlen's Softball team is going to be called the Ladybugs. Which is good. Last year they were the Sluggers and this yr Ben got the FOP to sponsor the team so the shirt would have said Sluggers with the FOP logo underneath it (Fraternal Order of Police). Made me giggle when i thought about it.

Bens taking us out to dinner tomorrow. Yeah, I don't have to cook!! I don't remember where we are going.

Prayers for Kennedy

Sweet Presh Kennedy has the stomach flu and when she gets sick she gets it worse than you or I. Where we might drink pedialite she needs monitoring, fluids and possibly blood draws. (i'm not 100% on how invasive they get with her) at the hospital. Tomorrow is her Buddy walk for DS and I know Mom is bummed about being in the hospital and im sure Kenn is too. Keep her health in your prayers and super big hugs for Renee's mom for being home from Florida and being able to help out with the other kids. Renee's Hubby is over seas right now and won't be home until March.

Eat at Chili's Tonight!!

They will be donating 100% of their proceeds to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. You can also create a pepper. how adorable is that?

♥For Coleman♥

♥ For Kennedy♥

Tropic Thunder- Don't see it

Tropic Thunder is a movie coming out with Jack Black, Ben Stiller and Robert Downey Jr. A movie Ben and I would have watched If Renee over at My Special K's hadn't posted about it. Renee explains it a hundred times better than I ever could. In her post that's linked above and in this link called, Why it hurts. I know some of you don't like to click on links but please do you won't be sorry and I guarantee you'll come out of it more informed. I hope Dreamworks realizes they have crossed the line.

Here are some lines from the movie-

The actor character played by Ben Stiller, Tugg Speedman, has key scenes in the movie which recreate a character he has played called Simple Jack. Jack is a ‘retard’. This element of the movie gives rise to a slew of objectionable phrases slanted directly at the disabled. Take the following, a conversation between Downey Jr’s character and Stiller’s, revolving around Stiller’s decision to play said ‘retard’:

Stiller: There were times when I was doing Jack when I actually felt retarded. Like really retarded.

Downey: Oh yeah. Damn.

Stiller: In a weird way, I had to sort of just free myself up to believe that it was okay to be stupid or dumb.

Downey: To be a moron.

Stiller: Yeah.

Downey: To be moronical.

Stiller: Exactly.

Downey: An imbecile.

Stiller: Yeah. When I was playing a character.

Downey: When you was a character.

Stiller: Yeah, I mean, as Jack. Definitely.

Downey: It’s like working with mercury. It’s how science makes art form.

Stiller: Yeah.

Downey: You an artist.

Stiller: It’s what we do, right?

Downey: Everybody knows you never do a full retard.

Stiller: What do you mean?

Downey: Check it out. Dustin Hoffman, Rainman, look retarded, act retarded, not retarded. Count toothpicks to your cards. Autistic. Sure. Not retarded.

You know Tom Hanks, Forrest Gump. Slow, yes. Retarded, maybe. Braces on his legs. But he charmed the pants off Nixon and he won a ping-pong competition? That ain’t retarded.

You went full retard, man. Never go full retard.

you can now get a shirt that says, 'Never go full retard'. :( that's horrible. go read.

Prayers for Kennedy

Have i told you about Kennedy?? She is a Sincess you see. She recently had a halo put on (just had her 1 month halo anniversary) because they wanted to visually confirm her Sincessness there was a gap to large between her vertebrae and it was very dangerous to leave that way.
She has been doing so awesome even with some setbacks, not sure that i'd call them setbacks because Kennedy just keeps heading forward but there is some tough stuff shes been having to deal with with her halo. She is back in the hospital today with something pretty scary. Not sure what it is yet. Viral?? bacterial?? not sure yet. She's a sick little girl right now. so please go over and tell Kennedy how awesome she is and give Renee some support and prayer.
Little Miss Sincess here also kicked Leukemia's bootay!!!
