Countdown… Day 619 25JUL10

We are counting down the days until Tuesday when Joshua is set to leave for Camp Boggy Creek and his first time staying away from home alone. Of course nothing is ever without problems… He started running a low grade fever this evening. It has not gotten very high and has been rising and falling from normal to a little elevated. We are all crossing fingers and toes that this is just a weird thermostat fluctuation or a result of the IVIG infusion he got Friday. He goes in to clinic tomorrow so we will get his counts and have the Doctor look at him. With any luck we will leave Tuesday and drive him up to Eustis for camp.

The boys spent today like most others. Joshua playing around the house and Jarrod alternately working on his robot and watching shows he has stashed on the DVR. The rains waited until late to come rolling in so the boys had plenty of time to pay outside and get a little swimming in. Summer is drawing to a close and pretty soon they will both be back at school work for most of the day. I start a new semester this coming week and will back in the thick of things for a bit. I have enjoyed being home every day this past week spending time with the family and wish it could last longer.

Hey Snuggle Monkey,

I'm hoping your body thermostat is reacting to the hot weather and nothing else. I'm crossing everything - and have even convinced Blessing to cross everything - that Camp Boggy is in your cards this year.

We finally got some rain yesterday afternoon and the promise of more today. Thank you for sharing!

Keep kickin butt Mighty Warrior. You are my champion.

Tons of Love, Hugs and Kisses,

Nonna

I sure hope the clinic numbers are fantastic and it's just one of those thermostat glitches you run into from time to time. Camp Boggy Creek is in your future this year and you will go and have a wonderful time!

Jarrod will continue to make fantastic robots with his Mindstorm and all will be right in the world.

Love, Laura and Frank
