4th Brithday Swiftly Approaching!

Wow! 5 more days till Kiera is 4 yrs old! What a trip this has been. Kiera is currently on CPAP settings all day while awake, and a rate of 10 while sleeping. We are busily planning a Little Mermaid Party for her. She is signing more signs every day and did the cutest thing the other day when the new nurse asked her how to sign "family." Kiera grabbed the nurse's hands and made her do the sign for "family." It was actually one of the few things I have yet to see her do as a response to a request. She is such a little teacher. She is really enjoying her toddler bed and her ability to get OUT of bed when she should be IN bed. She is busy, busy, busy. Jer and I are both still job hunting. This will hopefully be the week since school starts the 18th. The backyard is looking fantastic! Jerry has made such a change back there. I can't wait to post party pics since we are having it in the backyard. I have been busy making various creations with the humble produce he has grown so far...peach cobblers, pies, crisps, zucchini bread. Jer has a jungle of basil and makes awesome pesto. All in all, life is pleasant at the moment.

I have to laugh at the basil. I made Erik plant 10 plants of it so I could have pesto all winter. Currently I have over 100 cubes of it frozen lol! Today, we're canning our tomatoes and pasta sauce that I make. Anyway, I can't believe Keira is almost 4. More importantly, I've been reading your blog for nearly 3 years now. I started reading it when Emery was in the hospital. When you look at it that way, you think 'where on Earth did the time go?' Happy Birthday Sweet Kiera!
