Happy 10th birthday Harrison!


I can't believe it Harrison is 10. How the years seem to have just passed by in a blink. He is growing up so fast. So far in 10 years he has had 2 hospitalizations, one near drowning and he has moved to a whole new country. He has become a kind and polite boy. The other children accept him for who he is. He has become a wonderful big brother. Jonathan and Thomas look up to him to show them the way. Usually the way through a game the boys are playing. He has become a really nice boy and I hope the next ten years don't go as fast but he is still the wonderful boy that I know and love.


The days seem to be just moving along quietly right now. I like it when it is quiet. The boys have one more week of school until the school holidays. They are very much looking forward to it. So am I. We took Harrison and a couple of kids from school to play mini golf for his birthday this year. The boys had a really good time so we are hopefully going to do that over the holidays. The boys are also looking forward to going to see Horton Hears a Who. I am too. I love Dr. Suess. I don't think David has any days off yet so we won't be going away. Maybe on day trips. It is to cold to go to the beach but that is one of their favorite things to do. We will see what is on around the area.


Well hope everyone is well and happy.

Helene,
I was nearly crying when I realised Harrison is 10. He has grown so much and is a lovely boy that we miss so much. Putt Putt looks like it was fun, and nice to go with new firends, the way Harrison is moving he'll have friends all around the world.
Love ya babe

Howdy to the Coooper Family,
Happy Birthday Harrison!!!!! I had your birthday written on our calendar and planned on sending you birthday wishes but Mum got in first on her blog. It seems strange seeing photos of you with other friends. Can't you superimpose us in?????
Hope all is well. We are still missing you all. Helene we need you to lobby the school regarding making kids wear their winter uniform from the beginning of next term. Do you think that you could give the school a call and organise something for us????
Good to see photos of you all. Some photos on my blog of what we have been up to.
Love Ya Long Time,
Rell
