"God made shopping!"

Shayden this morning: "Go to kindi (preschool), Mummy?"

Me: Not today, Shayden. Today, we're going shopping and then horse-back riding.
(he gets wonderful riding therapy every Thursday!)

Shayden: I LOVE shopping! God made shopping!

Now you know who came up with the idea!
Out of the mouth of babes... hehehe!!!

Actually, Shayden really DOES LOVE SHOPPING! Since he's joined our family - over 3 1/2 years ago - he has never fussed in the supermarket!

No crying, whining, begging

Ever!

Nada!

WOW!!!!

This little boy is amazing and oh, how I love him!!!!

Went to the Children's Hospital in Auckland with him this week for an appointment with the Orthopedic Surgeon.
He's scheduled for surgery on his right hand (the better one) in October...
This will then give him at least one really good, strong hand! Yippeeee!!!

Can't resist posting these photos from this morning's horseback-riding.
This little boy has got such a winsome personality and joyful disposition that he conquers hearts everywhere he goes -

even to the point of people wondering if he ever stops smiling...


{He does!}
