Wishbone Day 2012

May 6th, 2012...it's Wishbone Day once again!!
I realize that I've been terrible at blogging lately...I've just been enjoying the days with my two little ones, playing outside, and getting projects done.
But today is too important not to Blog about!

Happy Wishbone Day!!

Cayden was so excited this morning when I told him what day it was.  He squealed his little squeal and had the biggest grin on his face!  He quickly asked me where his "Ham-bone" shirt was :-) I said "Wishbone, hunny,"  and he replied "Oh yeah, mom. Wishbone!"  He sure has a way to get me with even just the littlest things.  I love this boy too too much :-)
So we celebrate him today...and the so many others affected with Osteogenesis Imperfecta.  The strength in these little ones amazes me everyday...especially my Cayden's.
So we played...
all in our Wishbone shirts:-)

Daddy asked Cayden what he wanted to do on his special day, and he said after his nap he wanted to go fishing!  So that's exactly what we did!  :-)  The four of us walked around the back yard and found plenty of worms (even Mya, walking close behind!), then we packed up the car and headed out!  Off to a friend's pond, with snacks and juice boxes and Cayden's brand new fishing pole!
Daddy helped him cast and hook a good one, then Cayden reeled it in.
Three years old!!
 Then Daddy taught him how to watch the bobber real close, and YANK the line with all his little might when a fish pulled it under water...the reel it in all by himself!  So he watched...and squealed his squeal when the red and white bobber disappeared under the water...with lots of clapping and encouragement he yanked that pole and started reeling...laughing all the while! Here he is with his VERY FIRST fish caught ALL by himself!!  Daddy was so proud!  And mommy was sure happy she brought her camera!
What a big guy!
Number 1!

 And then he did it again!!
Number 2!!
The fish then went to sleep and weren't biting much anymore...so we went home, bathed, ate dinner, then I tucked my big, Brittle Bone Boy into bed, in his Wishbone shirt....I couldn't peel him out of it!  

What did you do today?!  
Maybe you thought of one of these precious kids today...and maybe that kid was mine!  :-)
Thanks so much for the support we get everyday...not just on this day...for our wonderful boy!
Wouldn't change a thing!
