Well it if Friday and that means Favorite Foto Friday time ... as always I am late with my post but hope to visit lots of blogs to see signs of hope ... for me I see hope everytime I look into Jaden's eyes ... Hope for the Future ... Hope for the present ... Hope for her as she grows up ... Hope for me as I grow older ... Hope for her childhood to remain ... I see Hope everytime I look at her ... she gave me Hope - as a mom to a baby, as a mom to a busy toddler, as a mom to a fiesty pre schooler and now as a mom of a grade schooler ... she has given me so much hope ... I know she will grow up to do amazing things with the compassion she has for others!

On another note ... Jaden went to daycare with a little girl named Ella Hope ... last December little Ella was diagnosed with a DIPG - a brain tumor with no known cure ... she was doing amazingly well up until last week when an MRI showed her tumor returned and had grown larger than when she was diangosed. There are sadly very few options for a diagnosis of this magnitude ... her family could really use your thoughts and prayers as they maintain their HOPE for Ella Hope to grow up as a child should! Please visit Ella Hope at: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/ELLAHOPE
Thanks for your prayers ... hope you have a wonderful weekend, ours is a busy one!
