Hello All,
Quick letter tonight as I don't have much to say.
If any of you are looking for a cute euphemism for passing gas, Mosey has a good one for you. He came up to me today and said, "I poofed, mom!" I thought he said that he pooped, but he still had his pants on so I thought maybe he just meant that he needed to go to the potty. I quickly ran him into the bathroom and sat him on the toilet when, again, he "poofed." He looked up at me, grinning, and said very proudly, "I poofed again, mom!"
Finally he did succeed in more than "poofing" on the potty, and he was so proud of himself he had to show Ben before he flushed it down. I love to see his newly developing sense of accomplishment, even when it does pretty much revolve around bathroom activities.
All right, here's hoping for some more elevating writing topics tomorrow night!

About Me
- Gabrielle
- I am a Christian, a wife, mother, homeschool teacher, perfectionist, night-owl, reader, conservative, photographer, and a lot more. I have 3 boys-- 11 year old twins named Joseph and Brigham, and a 9-year-old named Moses. I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2005. I went from a 30-mile-a-week runner to being mostly wheelchair-bound in 2 years. In 2008 I was accepted into the HALT-MS study-- a clinical trial in which I underwent an autologous stem cell transplant (bone marrow transplant) in an attempt to put the disease into remission. So far, I have remained stable for more than four years! I am grateful every day for the new lease on life that God (and modern medicine and awesome doctors, but mostly God :-)) has granted to me, and the chance I have to teach and raise my boys, love my husband, and experience the joy, frustration, happiness, and heartache that life brings.
