      good morning Claire, and family! :) happy sunny friendship hugs! :) how are you all? :) we hope and pray that all is well, and that you all are having a great summer. :) We are thinking of you all. :) have you gotten a chance to take some pictures this summer? :) my family and i think of you all often, each and every day, keeping you all close within our hearts, and in our thoughts and prayers. :) Thank you so very much, for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers, and for all of your wonderful comments, warm well wishes, hugs, and amazing support. :) We deeply appreciate everything, with all of our hearts. :) We are hoping and praying that our dear friend, our former teacher makes a full recovery. we are holding onto hope, and faith, and hoping and praying for the very best. We were very stunned by the news that he had a heart attack. he is a young man, very athletic, and involved with the school sports program. he use to be the soccer coach, and he would always run with the team, encouraging them. he's a great friend, mentor, and teacher. We are awaiting new news on his condition. i had just written to him on June 29th, shortly after Alyssa's graduation, and i mentioned how my sister Jenn, niece Alyssa, and i would love to come up to the new school to visit in the autumn. i've been checking our local news sites, to see if i can find any articles about our friend. he's a great teacher, who helps the school system, and sports teams so very much. We want him to be alright. he loves his sports, Red Sox and Patriots. :) he's a great team member, always participating in school events, and helping the students grow and learn, as they enter the workforce after school. he's an inspiration, and a great team leader. i'm going to ask my sister Jenn if she has heard any new news on his condition. i will keep everyone updated as soon as i hear a new update. Thank you again for all of your wonderful well wishes. i am going to include our friends email in my journal today, if anyone would like to send a message/ecard. god bless you all. my family and i thank you all so very much for being here for us all, and for comforting us, and uplifting us. we all are keeping strong, and keeping in good spirits. We are gearing up for the big day tomorrow, Taylynn's 2nd birthday, and our 100th baking friday adventure. :) we look forward to sharing the celebrations with everyone. :) i will take lots and lots of pictures to share. :) Kayla and i, and our family are going to decorate the kitchen, the biggest baking friday decoration we have ever had. :) it's gonna be such a wonderfully amazing day. :) we are with our dear friend Edward and his family in spirit, and sending lots of well wishes, and our very best positive healing energy. my mom and sister and nieces have a busy day today, as they will be going shopping. i'm going to go deep into the yard and garden today, exploring the plants, and gonna take lots of pictures to share with everyone. :) We are looking forward to harvesting lots more goodies from our gardens very soon, and we have faith and believe, that healing will take place for our dear friend, and that we will be able to visit him and other former teachers. :) keeping hope and faith alive. :) my mom and Kayla says hi. :) We had a nice relaxing, and peaceful evening and night. i cried a little bit yesterday evening, very worried about our friend. i saying extra prayers, for healing, comfort, and peace. :) You and your family are so very wonderful, and help us so very much, each and every day. :) We deeply appreciate everything, with all of our hearts. :) We will always be here for you and your family too. :) We send our love, warm friendship wishes, caring thoughts, many blessings, warm sunshine, and lots of super big comforting hugs, from all of us here in CT. :) Take care, enjoy a beautiful day. :)
